The investigator would apply a method of expert-knowledge and statistical technique to the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) data set to identify and measure latent competencies that students must use to get correct solutions to test problems. The TIMSS was conducted in both mathematics and science, but the final negotiated project will be conducted in mathematics only. The purpose of this investigation is to provide a technique that can help classroom teachers and administrators make better use of test score data. The investigator has developed a technique (Rule Space method) to enable the creation of a scale score on underlying knowledge states. This process will test through statistical analysis the existence of attributes of the test items that identify cognitive processing skills and knowledge underlying student performance.

研究人员将运用专家知识和统计技术的方法，第三次国际数学和科学研究（TIMSS）的数据集，以确定和测量潜在的能力，学生必须使用得到正确的解决方案，以测试问题。 TIMSS在数学和科学两个方面进行，但最终谈判的项目将只在数学方面进行。 这项调查的目的是提供一种技术，可以帮助课堂教师和管理人员更好地利用考试成绩数据。 研究人员开发了一种技术（规则空间方法），使基础知识状态的量表得分的创建。 这一过程将通过统计分析来测试测试项目的属性是否存在，这些属性确定了学生表现背后的认知处理技能和知识。
