Standardization reasoning Thinking of Test for of college studentsAssistant

Abstract

The current research aims to Standardization the reasoning Thinking test for university students.
To achieve this goal, the researcher translated the test and instruction paragraphs from English to
Arabic, re-translated them again from Arabic to English, then presented them to a group of
specialists in the English language and made some changes in the light of their opinions. Then, the
test paragraphs and instructions were presented to a group of experts specializing in educational
and psychological sciences to ensure the availability of appropriate properties for these paragraphs
and their alternatives in terms of form and content. In order to analyze the opinions of experts and
work according to their observations, Approved (80%) standard for accepting the paragraph and
compared to the tabular value and when the calculated value was greater than the tabular drop the
paragraph, and based on the previous criterion it became clear that all the test items are logically
valid to measure what was set to measure it. After that, the test was applied to a survey sample
consisting of (50) students who were randomly selected from the undergraduate students, and
through the exploratory experiment it became clear that the test instructions are clear, and that the
average time taken to answer the test is (40) minutes.
Then the test was applied to the sample of the statistical analysis of (400) male and female
students randomly chosen from the undergraduate students, and in the analysis of the paragraphs
three criteria were adopted to test the paragraphs: the difficulty level between (0,20-0,80),
discrimination (0,20) Using the two-term method in the overall result, as well as using the validity
of the paragraph as the correlation between the degree of each paragraph, and the overall result of
the test using the correlation coefficient of the two. The reliability of the test (stability) was also
extracted by the method of (Alpha Kronbach): the test stability index was (0.87), and it was found
that all the paragraphs were within acceptable limits, and that no paragraph was deleted.

After that, the test was applied to the sample, deriving the criteria, and it consists of (800)
students, who were randomly selected and distributed at all academic levels for undergraduate
students. Thus, the current research goal of deriving the Iraqi standards for the test was achieved.
