心理与教育测验中反应时模型应用的优势与举例

基于计算机形式的测验使得收集作答反应时信息成为可能,这些信息的有效利用对心理与教育测验的理论研究和实际应用产生了重大影响。首先,归纳并总结了测验中使用反应时信息的五大优势。其次,分别介绍了4种不同取向下较典型的反应时模型与模型特征,并分别进行评价。再次,较系统地梳理了反应时模型在实践中的应用,使读者了解反应时信息在测验中所发挥的作用。最后,探讨了未来将反应时应用于心理与教育测量领域的几个研究方向。

Advantages and illustrations of application of response time model in psychological and educational testing

The use of computer-based assessments makes it possible to collect response time in psychological and educational testing contexts.The collection of response time has significant implications for improving psychological and educational testing theories and practice.The author first introduces five advantages of utilizing response time,including its ability to distinguish test takers' genuine ability from their speed,investigate the speed-accuracy trade-off,detect aberrant behaviors during the testing,improve the efficiency of item selection methods in the computerized adaptive testing (CAT),and compare within-individual test-taking strategies.Then,the model features of response time models with different construction orientations are elaborated in the context of psychological and educational testing,and these models are evaluated comprehensively.Moreover,current applications of the response time models in psychological and educational testing are systematically reviewed and analyzed.Finally,directions for future research in response time in psychological and educational testing are discussed.
