Furthering research underpinning OECD Programme for International Student Assessment - PISA

Fri, April 12, 3:05 to 4:35pm, Convention Center, Floor: First, 121A

Session Type: Coordinated Paper Session

Abstract

This session presents a collection of papers that each aim to contribute to the research base that feeds into the ongoing improvement of the OECD PISA study. As a large-scale assessment that places a significant priority on maintaining cross-sectional trends, it is important that research balances the needs to maintain the underpinning constructs, with innovation that improves the efficiency of the assessment and integrates new approaches from the literature. This is particularly important in the context of PISA, a study that is growing in size: both in the number of participants, but also in the growing size of item pools and questionnaire forms.
The focus in this session is embedded in the context of the now concluded 2022 cycle, and forthcoming 2025 cycle. In 2025, more than 90 countries will participate in PISA, all core assessment domains (Reading, Mathematics, and Science) will transition to be adaptive tests, and the questionnaire item pool will continue to grow and develop. In turn, the papers presented here interrogate how consistent international measurement and comparisons can be maintained, how we can efficiently assembly adaptive tests, how we can ensure contextual questionnaire material is relevant, and how to better interpret group-level differences in contextual constructs.
