Abstract

Abstract  The study applied the Multivariate GT to each of the four administration(from 2007 to 2010)of the psychology entrance test which consisted of 4 sub-disciplines and 4 item types. The results showed that 1. From the content tested view, development and education psychology and experiment psychology showed the poorer reliability than others; 2. From the item type designed view, multiple choice with multi-correct answers showed the poorer reliability than others; its reliability will be improved with increasing the number of itself and decreasing the number of multiple choice with single-correct answers; 3. The reliability of the total psychology entrance test is very good, and four forms constructed based on the table of specifications are quite “parallel” to each other.
