Validation of a Multiple Choice Visual Arts Achievement Test

Nikolaus Bezruczko

Chicago, Illinois

This study assessed the measurement properties, internal structure, and criterion validity of 39 multiple choice achievement items developed to assess Grade 3 visual arts learning. The results showed that a test of 38 items for Grade 3 generally fit the Rasch measurement model with moderate reliability (Rtt = .85). Standardized effect size between art and nonart groups in Grades 3, 7, and high school was .38, .21, and .42, respectively. Content and criterion validation with limitations supported its use, but confirmatory factor analysis indicated that future studies are needed to clarify the test construct.
