The present study was undertaken to promote a research on
standardization of tests items for testing learning outcome in the
subject of Mathematics at secondary level. An item bank
consisting of 140 dichotomous items was developed using
modern test theory-Item Response Theory (IRT). Each item was
aligned, on the basis of Blooms’ taxonomy, with a unique
students’ learning outcome SLO of National Curriculum for 9th
Grade Mathematics. Three Item’s booklets were piloted over 960
students from four strata male, Female, rural and urban. Pilot
data was analyzed using Classical Test Theory (CTT) and Item
Response Theory (IRT) based software and sixty items were
selected for final test based on item difficulty and discrimination
indexes. Total 320 students were participated from 09 districts of
the Punjab and four strata—male, Female, rural and urban. Data
was analyzed by using SPSS, Conquest, and Multilog software.
IRT based person item map showed the test item covered -3 to +3
range of abilities. Test characteristics and item characteristics
curves and factor analysis supported the reliability and validity
of the test. It explored that Math achievement test is
appropriately constructed. One may replicate this study by using
2PLM and 3PLM of Item Response Theory (IRT) models.
