研制多套难度相似的思辨技能量具:实践与反思

Developing Parallel Tests of Critical Thinking Skills: Practice and Reflections

本文第一作者曾在2008年构建了调查我国大学生思辨技能现状的首套量具。本研究以此套量具为参照点,力图构建多套难度相似的平行量具,用于跟踪调查我国外语类大学生思辨技能的变化。本文将详细描述这些平行量具的研制过程,同时也评述我们对量具构建的反思,旨在为其他构建跟踪研究所需多套量具的研究者提供启示。

This paper reports how we developed a set of parallel tests of critical thinking （CT） skills for a longitudinal study on CT development of Chinese college foreign from a seed instrument in a previous cross-sectional study during language majors. These multiple tests were generated which both reliability and validity of the instrument had been confirmed. The process of creating such tests is described in details. The paper ends with reflections on our gains and lessons which may have implications for instrument construction for other longitudinal studies
