    Find The Index of Difficulty

    Uploaded by

    Arvin Osol Penaso
    The document provides examples of calculating the index of difficulty for 5 situations involving different sample sizes (N), numbers of wrong answers in the upper and lower quartiles, and solutions. The index of difficulty (P) is calculated by taking the sum of the wrong answers in the upper and lower quartiles, dividing by the total sample size (N), and multiplying by 100. P ranges from 13.33 to 23.33 across the 5 examples provided.

    A.

    Find the index of difficulty in each of the following situations:


    1. N = 60, number of wrong answers : upper 25% = 2 lower 25% = 6

    Solution:
    R U + RL
    P= X 100
    T

    2+6
    P= X 100
    60

    8
    P= X 100
    60

    P = 0.1333 X 100
    P = 13.33

    2. N = 80, number of wrong answers : upper 25% = 2 lower 25% = 9

    Solution:
    R U + RL
    P= X 100
    T

    2+9
    P= X 100
    80

    11
    P= X 100
    80

    P = 0.1375 X 100
    P = 13.75

    3. N = 30, number of wrong answers : upper 25% = 1 lower 25% = 6


    Solution:
    R U + RL
    P= X 100
    T

    1+6
    P= X 100
    30

    7
    P= X 100
    30

    P = 0.23333333 X 100
    P = 23.33

    4. N = 50, number of wrong answers : upper 25% = 3 lower 25% = 8

    Solution:
    R U + RL
    P= X 100
    T

    3+8
    P= X 100
    50

    11
    P= X 100
    50

    P = 0.22 X 100
    P = 22

    5. N = 70, number of wrong answers : upper 25% = 4 lower 25% = 10

    Solution:
    R U + RL
    P= X 100
    T
    4 + 10
    P= X 100
    70

    14
    P= X 100
    70

    P = 0.2 X 100
    P = 20
