| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In performance assessment where human raters subjectively grade examinees’ performances, it is important to estimate examinee ability while removing effects of raters’ biases. The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate item response theory (IRT) models for performance assessment that can estimate examinee ability while removing rater bias effects. Concretely, we conducted the following three studies. 1) Development of a new IRT model incorporating various rater characteristic parameters to improve robustness against aberrant raters. 2) Development of an efficient Markov chain Monte Carlo method using the No-U-Turn sampler algorithm for the proposed IRT model. 3) Extensions and applications of the proposed method for various performance assessment situations.
