Using Generalizability Theory to Examine Different Concept Map Scoring Methods

Conclusions and Recommendations: According to the results of this study, Phi coefficient was higher in the concept map study in which the holistic scoring method was used. In this study, tasks represented a significant variance component for both scoring methods. This may be interpreted to mean that the levels of difficulty for the tasks differed according to the students using both methods. In each of the scoring methods, the variance related to the raters was found to be zero, which may result in the interpretation that raters scored the maps consistently.Findings and Results: In focusing on the size of the variance estimates according to holistic scoring methods, while the student component (objects of measurement) accounts for one of the largest percentages of th
