Research Abstract	In a criterion-referenced measurement of motor function, criterions and standards corresponding to individual motor development in children were required to evaluate absolutely motor function improving in PE program. Item response theory (IRT) was applied to motor achievement pattern data measured individual motor skill improvement attained in elementary PE program. Test item characteristics for a computer-adapted test algorism were analyzed using IRT on mat exercise, vaulting box and horizontal bar in apparatus gymnastics, swimming, technical and tactical soccer ball exercises were confirmed.
