多维项目反应理论是基于因子分析和单维项目反应理论两大背景下发展起来的一种新型测验理论。根据被试在完成一项任务时多种能力之间是如何相互作用的,多维项目反应模型可以分为补偿性模型和非补偿性模型两类。本文在系统介绍了当前普遍使用的补偿性模型的基础上,指出后续研究者应关注多维项目反应理论中多级评分和高维空间的多维模型、补偿性和非补偿性模型的融合、参数估计程序的开发和多维测验等值四个方面的研究。
Multidimensional item response theory is a new test theory based on factor analysis and unidimensional item response theory. According to the way how multiple abilities interact on each other when the subject is performing a task, multidimensional item response models can be divided to two types compensatory and noncompensatory models. Based on the compensatory models which are commonly used in practice, this paper investigated the development trend in the further research, which included MIRT models for polytomous data and higher dimensional space, developing parameter estimate program for the MIRT models, research of integrating compensatory and noncornpensatory models, and Multidimensional test equating.
