An evaluation of factors influencing inclusive calibrations

• In Event: Electronic Board Session III

Abstract

Items translated into a different language often share parameters with the original language version of the item. Inclusive calibrations occur when examinees taking the translated assessment are included with the original language population. This paper investigates how examinee sub-populations influence the scoring tables under inclusive calibration.
