Using the many-facet Rasch model to determine cutscores and resolve fundamental standard setting issues

This paper illustrates the use of the Many-facet Rasch model and the Objective Standard Setting Method in the construction of cutscores, and in dealing with fundamental standard setting issues. With the proliferation of standardized testing for accountability purposes, the tracking of educational g...
