The purpose of this investigation was to monitor the functioning of a many-faceted essay examination system and analytic scoring procedure, particularly, the variability associated with a number of facets. To achieve this purpose, the study used a series of many-facet Rasch measurement models to conduct empirical investigations of the assumptions underlying the essay examination system. All relevant facets of the assessment examination system and their interactions were examined.

520 $a The purpose of this investigation was to monitor the functioning of a many-faceted essay examination system and analytic scoring procedure, particularly, the variability associated with a number of facets. To achieve this purpose, the study used a series of many-facet Rasch measurement models to conduct empirical investigations of the assumptions underlying the essay examination system. All relevant facets of the assessment examination system and their interactions were examined.
520 $a Appropriate Rasch dichotomous and polytomous models were applied to the study's sample data (N = 230) to establish empirically that: (a) the range of applicants' language mechanics ability was discernible at two distinct levels of the latent trait continuum (0, 1), irrespective of the number of errors documented in the 250-word essay by raters; (b) the difficulty levels of language components rated varied significantly from -1.68 to 1.33 logits; (c) overall, raters demonstrated high intra-rater reliability (standardized z-values ranged from -1.48 to 3.5) with three raters classified with aberrant ratings over four grading sessions; (d) essay test topics were non-interchangeable in difficulty; and (e) there were significant language component by job category interactions. Inconsistencies with assumptions underlying the system, with practical and theoretical implications of findings, are noted. Suggestions are made for further research.
