ÃÊ·Ï Kim, Nayu & Lee, Heechul. (2017). An Exploration of High School Reading Test Items Based on Discriminant Analysis. The Linguistic Association of Korea Journal, 25(1), 75-92. The purpose of this study was to analyze dimensions of high school English reading test items based on discriminant analysis. For this study, 387 high school students participated in the English reading test consisting of 28 items. The subjects' responses to the items were submitted to SPSS version 20 for discriminant analysis to investigate the dimensions of reading test items. The findings of the discriminant analysis revealed that the controlled items made by the examiners did not correctly discriminate the high level students. The categorization of reading test items which help divide the students into the high, intermediate and low level of whole subjects consisted of fourteen items, which were categorized as five types such as filling the blank, title inference, inserting sentence, completing the key sentence and text order inference. In addition, the discriminant function resulted from this study classified subjects as three groups according to their English ability correctly on upper 80% accuracy. The findings of this study indicated that specific types of reading test items played an important role in judging and predicting individual student English proficiency. (Chonbuk National University)
