| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study investigated the effects of the numbers of options (four-option vs. three-option) on different listening tasks. The data were analyzed from the perspective of item difficulty, discrimination, reliability, and distractor performance. The results indicate that the number of options had no notable impact on item difficulty in picture and dialogue tasks, but had a significant effect in the monologue task. The results also suggest that the number of options had no great impact on item discrimination and reliability in all tasks, and that the number of items containing all discriminating distractors was different between the three tasks. The overall findings provide evidence that task difference and distractor analysis are important elements in the study of optimal number of options and the development of multiple-choice listening tests.
