Abstract | Specific steps for applying the Angoff method are described. In the Angoff method, judges are asked to estimate the probabilities of minimally competent candidates' answering multiple choice test items correctly. Initial information must be obtained for designing the standard-setting process, beginning with the purpose of the examination and any restrictions imposed. In preparation for the standard setting meeting, four areas of concern must be addressed: (1) background for certifying; (2) meeting site selection; (3) judge selection; and (4) preparation of materials for judges. At the meeting, three main areas must be considered: (1) examination background; (2) definition of an entry-level professional; and (3) setting the standard. Setting the standard requires a practice exercise and review of the item rating process. A post-standard setting meeting is required to document the process and complete documentation. The Task Review Form, the Angoff Item Review Forms (Methods A and B), and an implementation checklist for the Angoff Standard-Setting Method are appended. (SLD) |
