This study was based on the assessment of model fit for 2016 and 2017 Biology multiple choice test items of the National Business and Technical Examination Board. It aimed at empirically investigating the model fit of the 1, 2, and 3 Parameter Logistic Models (PLM) of the examinations using Item Response Theory. Three research questions were raised with two hypotheses formulated and tested. The expo-facto research design was adopted for this study. The population for the study was 5,115 and 4600 candidates in public and private schools in south-south geo-political zone in Nigeria for 2016 and 2017 respectively.

Poor academic performance of students in senior secondary school certificate examination in some commercial subjects may be attributed to ineffective scoring techniques used by classroom teachers and examination bodies. Therefore, this study compared the effectiveness of four scoring techniques in multiple-choice financial accounting in secondary schools of Osun state, Nigeria. The study adopted a descriptive survey and Quasi-experimental research designs. The sample consisted of 420 senior secondary schools (SSSII) Financial Accounting students selected using Multi-stage sampling technique. An instrument titled “Financial Accounting Multiple-Choice Test (FAMT)” with a reliability coefficient of .80 was administered to selected students. The marks obtained through standard conventional, logical weight, corrected and confidence scoring techniques were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings showed that the logical weight scoring technique had the highest mean value of 40.63 when compared with other scoring techniques. It was also revealed that there was a significant difference in the performance of students in Financial Accounting multiple-choice test items using the four scoring techniques (F(3,1676) =31.494, p<.05). Based on the findings, it was concluded that students performed better using the logical weight scoring technique in Financial Accounting multiple-choice test items and is the most effective scoring technique among others. The study recommended that a logical weight scoring technique should be encouraged and used in scoring Financial Accounting multiple-choice test items in secondary schools by examination bodies.   Received: 27 March 2021 / Accepted: 29 April 2021 / Published: 17 May 2021
