Description

Our aim is to show the possibility of using eye tracking to assess some aspects of the validity of multiple-choice tests. Specifically, we focus on nine tasks with textual and graphical representations from the TOSLS science literacy test. Twenty-three high and undergraduate school students participated in the study. We can assess validity based on quantitative analysis (e.g., the time students take to solve a task, the time they spend on an alternative or a stem, etc.). We can also assess validity based on qualitative analysis of gaze plots, for example we can identify distracting graphical elements, difficult or illegible words.
