Abstract

Recently, the need for an objective way to assess student performance has quickly increased in the Italian educational system. The competence evaluation can be carried out by analyzing the results of a questionnaire containing a set of items. In this work, we analyze the results of a test on mathematics literacy administered to pupils attending the last year of lower secondary school. In particular, we compare different methods in the latent variable model framework.
