This document defines and describes matching type tests. It begins by defining matching type tests as objective tests consisting of two sets of items that must be matched based on a specified attribute. It notes they measure the ability to identify relationships between similar items. The document then provides more details on the structure and components of matching type tests, including that they have two columns - a premises column with items to be matched and a response column with potential matches. It discusses advantages like being more representative and removing subjective scoring. It also outlines disadvantages such as encouraging memorization without understanding. Finally, the document provides guidelines for constructing effective matching type tests, including using clear directions, ensuring homogeneity, and using an imperfect match structure when possible.

- 2. DEFINITION • An objective test consisting of two sets of items to be matched with each other for a specified attribute. • A “recognition” and “structured-response” type of test • The matching type may be considered as modified multiple choice type items where the choices progressively reduce as one successfully matches the items on the left with the items on the right.
- 3. DEFINITION • Has two columns with each concept in the one column being matched with a concept in the other column. • -measures the ability to identify the relationship between a set of similar items, each of which has two components, such as words and their definitions, symbols and their meanings, dates and events, causes and effects, people and their accomplishments, problems and solutions, etc.
- 4. Premises column – the column for which a match is right Response column – the column from which to choose the match
- 5. The items in the first column are called premises and the answers in the second column are the responses.
- 6. • Perfect Match – when the number of items in the premises column is equal to the number of items in the response column
- 7. Imperfect Match – when the premises column has less items than the response column
- 8. ADVANTAGES • Validity and reliability of the matching type exams are higher than the essay. • The sampling of the examination is more representative and so measurement is more extensive. This is because more items are included in the test compared to essay.
- 9. ADVANTAGES • Handicaps such as poor vocabulary, poor- handwriting, poor spelling, poor grammar and the like do not adversely affect the ability to make a reply. • Scoring is not subjective, because responses are single word, letters and other symbols with definite value points and hence, the personal element of the scorer is removed.
- 10. ADVANTAGES • Saves time and energy in answering the questions. • Easy to check. • Allows the comparison of related ideas, concepts or theories.
- 11. DISADVANTAGES • It is hard to prepare. • It measures factual knowledge only. • It does not help in nor encourage the development of the ability of the students to organize and express their ideas.
- 12. DISADVANTAGES • It encourages memory work even without understanding. • There are certain subjects or courses that are not amendable to objective examinations. • It may encourage cheating because it is easy to cheat on this type of exam.
- 13. DISADVANTAGES • Students can guess in this type of exam. • Producing this type of exam is expensive. • Since there are many choices, eliminating other possible answers is harder compared to the multiple type of exam.
- 14. When to use matching type? They are effective when you need to measure the learner’s ability to identify the relationship or association between similar items. They work best when the course content has many parallel concepts. • Terms and Definitions • Objects or Pictures and Labels • Symbols and Proper Names • Causes and Effects • Scenarios and Responses • Principles and Scenarios to which they apply
- 15. Guidelines • Give clear directions or instructions • The premises column must be in the left while the responses column is in the right. • Write the item as clearly as possible.
- 16. Guidelines • Be sure that the materials are homogenous. B A. Magellan B. Rizal C. Aguinaldo A __ 1. First President of the Republic __ 2. National Hero __ 3. Discovered the Philippines __ 4. Brain of Katipunan
- 17. Guidelines • Use an imperfect match as much as possible. • Place all of the items for one matching exercises on the same page. • Order of correct answer are randomly arranged • Arrange items in response column in either logical or natural order alphabetically if there is no apparent organizational basis.
- 18. Guidelines • Use numbers to identify items in Premises Column, capital letters to identify responses in Response Column. • The ideal number of items is 5 to 15. • Be sure each item has a pair.
- 19. Guidelines • Be careful about what material is put in the question column and what is put into the option column. • Statements borrowed from the textbook or other references must be avoided.
- 20. Guidelines • There should be NO keywords appearing in both a premise and response providing a clue to the correct answer. • Prepare a scoring key or guide.
