AboutAbout the lab
Designing better tests from data.
The Hidetoki Lab studies the full life cycle of tests, from how questions are written to how tests are administered, scored, evaluated, and used, in fields known as educational measurement and psychometrics.
Based on actual examinees' response data, the lab analyzes test questions (item analysis) and verifies item-writing guidelines.
Recently, the lab has been developing item-writing guidelines grounded in empirical study and test administration methods that fit the needs of those who administer tests, and it also conducts research on entrance examinations and on psychology in general.
The research themes of past students have been wide-ranging, covering nursing, mental health, personality, motivation, and learning strategies, and students basically choose their own themes.
