Introduction
The teacher normally
prepares a draft of the
test. Such a draft is
subjected to item analysis
and validation to ensure
that the final version of the
test would be useful and
functional.
Phases of preparing a test
Try-out phase
Item analysis phase

TEST
Item Analysis
Item analysis is a process which examines
student responses to individual test items
(questions) in order to assess the quality of those
items and of the test as a whole.
Item Difficulty
Discrimination Index
Item Difficulty or the difficulty of an
item
is defined as the number of students who
are able to answer the item correctly divided
by the total number of students. Thus:
Item difficulty = 75
100
= 75.00%
1 A B* C D
0 40 20 20 Total
0 15 5 0 Upper 25%
0 5 10 5 Lower 25%
= 40
100
= 40%, within of a “good item”
The discrimination index can be similarly be computed:
DU = no. of students in the upper 25% with correct response
No. of students in the upper 25%
= 15/20 = .75 or 75%
DL= no. of students in lower 75% with correct response
no. of students in the lower 25%
= 5/20 = .25 or 25%
Discrimination index = DU – DL
= .75 - .25 = .50 or 50%
