A Simulation and Empirical Study of Differential Test Functioning (DTF)

open access: yesPsych, 2023
Detecting and understanding DTF is very important under various DIF conditions. In this study, the performance of DTF, DRF, SIBTEST, and CSIBTEST approaches in detecting DIF effects was investigated using a simulation study and a real dataset.

Purification procedures used for the detection of gender DIF: Item bias in a foreign language test

open access: yesInternational Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2023
Differential item functioning (DIF) detection was handled based on “Mantel-Haenszel (MH)”, “Simultaneous item bias test (SIBTEST)”, “Lord's chi-square”, “Raju's area” methods when item purification was performed or item purification was not performed ...

The Multidimensionality of Measurement Bias in High‐Stakes Testing: Using Machine Learning to Evaluate Complex Sources of Differential Item Functioning

open access: yesEducational Measurement: Issues and Practice, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 24-33, Spring 2023., 2023
Abstract Test developers and psychometricians have historically examined measurement bias and differential item functioning (DIF) across a single categorical variable (e.g., gender), independently of other variables (e.g., race, age, etc.). This is problematic when more complex forms of measurement bias may adversely affect test responses and ...

Detecting Differential Item Functioning in 2PL Multistage Assessments

open access: yesPsych, 2023
The detection of differential item functioning is crucial for the psychometric evaluation of multistage tests. This paper discusses five approaches presented in the literature: logistic regression, SIBTEST, analytical score-based tests, bootstrap score ...
