1.In this study, we examined the. applicability of the Item Response Theory, which the test theory has put to a good use, to the detection of DIF(Differential Item Functioning) within the items of some measurement scales in crossnational comparative surveys. Also we examined how each DIF detection method showed the different results.2.The item equivalence in crossnational comparison implies both "equivalence of translation" and "equivalence of meanings." The DIF analysis concerns the latter, though.3.Among the various DIF analysis methods, we pick the following four. Two parametric methods(1.DIF command of BILOG-MG, 2.Thissen's likelihood ratio test) and two non-parametric methods(3.M-H statistics, 4.logistic regression.)4.We applied these methods to the following data. 1.Legal Image Scale from a Japan-US law student survey. 2.The Scale for the Level of Confidence in various governmental institutions from a Japan-US-China legal consciousness survey. 3.F-Scale from a 22-country/region l … More aw and business student survey for contract consciousness.5.Results. 1.Even in the case that the scale has. higher unidimensionality in factor analysis and confirmed equivalence of translation, we found some item shows DIF. 2.In the case that the number of samples are quite large, any statistical significance testing is likely to have significant results, we need to pay much attention to the possible different meanings of the terms used in the items. For example, 'Fairness' in the confidence in government scale. 3.We also found it is useful to use multi DIF detection methods to detect DIF items.6.We presented our findings at the following academic conferences and meetings. 1.The Fifth Annual Conference of the Japanese Society for Law and Psychology(October 16.17,2004.) 2.The Sixth Annual Conference of the Japanese Society for Law and Psychology(October 15.16,2005.) 3.A meeting of the Asian-Pacific Dispute Resolution Project at the Institution of Asian Research, University of British Columbia(March 5- 11,2006.)

1.在这项研究中，我们检查了。测试理论充分利用了项目反应理论，对跨国比较调查中某些测量量表项目内DIF（项目差异功能）检测的适用性。2.国际比较中的项目对等既包括“翻译对等”，也包括“意义对等”。然而，DIF分析关注的是后者。3.在各种DIF分析方法中，我们选择了以下四种。两种参数方法（1. BILOG-MG的DIF命令，2. Thissen似然比检验）和两种非参数方法（3.M-H统计，4. Logistic回归）。4.我们将这些方法应用于以下数据。1.法律的形象量表，来自日美法律系学生调查。2.日美中三国法律的意识调查中的政府机关信任度量表3. F-从22个国家/区域l ...更多信息 法、商科学生合同意识调查。1.即使在规模已经。因子分析的单维性较高，并证实了译文的对等性，发现部分条目呈现出差异性。2.在样本数量相当大的情况下，任何统计学显著性检验都有可能产生显著的结果，我们需要非常注意项目中使用的术语可能存在的不同含义。例如，对政府规模的信心中的“公平”。3.我们还发现使用多种DIF检测方法来检测DIF项目是有用的。1.日本法律与心理学会第五届年会（2004年10月16日至17日）2.日本法律与心理学会第六届年会（2005年10月15.16日）3.2006年3月5日至11日在不列颠哥伦比亚省大学亚洲研究所举行的亚太争端解决项目会议。少
