Rasch Model Analysis on the Exam of Social Work Research Methods

This study aimed at determining the quality of research methodology course test for social work department students, third year at Mogadishu University. Rasch model in WINSTEPS was used to examine 17 items for 42 test-takers based on Separation, Reliability, Dimensionality, Model fit, Item difficulty Point measure correlation, and Person items distribution map (right map). The majority of the items met the acceptable requirements, however some did not. As a result, the study's findings revealed that the Rasch measurement model in WINSTEPS is a useful tool for analysing tests in higher education.
