| Research Abstract |
Toward a test theory that measures knowledge and conceptual structures.
Recent upsurge of cognitive psychology produced fertile knowledge about human conceptual structures and information processings. It seems curious, however, that the results of cognitive psychology did not influence much on the test theory. Previous test theories are all sound and useful, but they have a common drawback in that they can hardly incorporate the results of cognitive psychology. The present study aims at integrating the results of cognitive psychology and the test theory.
The provocative feature of the present approach is incorporate prior knowledge and cognitive models into the test theory. Several cognitive domains (Balance beam problem, arithmetic division problem, etc.) were investigated with the methodology and the results revealed the potential of the methodology.
