我们提出了一个简单的技术来评估多项选择题和他们的答案超出了通常的措施的难度和干扰的有效性。该技术涉及项目反应曲线的构建和定性考虑，并以教育测量领域的项目反应理论为基础。为了证明该技术，我们应用项目反应曲线分析三个问题的力量概念量表。项目反应曲线分析使我们能够定性地表征这些问题是否有效，其中有效的定义是在建设，性能和歧视的问题及其答案的选择。这种技术可用于开发未来的多项选择题，并更好地了解现有诊断工具的结果。
We present a simple technique for evaluating multiple-choice questions and their answers beyond the usual measures of difficulty and the effectiveness of distractors. The technique involves the construction and qualitative consideration of item response curves and is based on item response theory from the field of education measurement. To demonstrate the technique, we apply item response curve analysis to three questions from the Force Concept Inventory. Item response curve analysis allows us to characterize qualitatively whether these questions are efficient, where efficient is defined in terms of the construction, performance, and discrimination of a question and its answer choices. This technique can be used to develop future multiple-choice examination questions and a better understanding of results from existing diagnostic instruments.
