待解決之問題 (2) for MDC值

經由分析,兩次評量分數的平均值與兩次評量分數差異的絕對值相關係數大致上都大於0.3,顯示資料呈現heterosecedasticity的現象,MDC值可能無法適用於樣本中的每一個案。









待解決之問題 (1) for MDC % (已修改)

MDC % = (MDC/the possible highest scores of measurement) x100

MDC % for actual performance = (3.25/20) x 100 = 16.3%  acceptable

MDC % for self-perceived difficulty = (6.49/20) x100 = 32.5 %

MDC % for ability = (2.19/18) x 100 = 12.2 % acceptable

* MDC%<30% : acceptable ; MDC% <10% : excellent
* MDC%越小,表示評估工具評估物差越低

Bland-Altman Plots for the 3-aspect BI test-retest reliability




In Figs 1-3 the differences of scores are plotted against mean scores of the 2 sessions(1). The limits of agreements (LOAs) of the 3 aspects ranged from -3.7 to 2.9 for actual performance, -7.5 to 5.0 for self-perceived difficulty, and -2.3 to 1.7 for ability.
