| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study is to validate the psychometrics characteristics of the Malaysian University Selection Inventory (MUnSyI) as a high-stakes university admission test using the Rasch Measurement Model. The MUnSyI is a new selection process which utilized on well-established psychological and psychometric principles based on Classical Test Theory, was introduced into Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), in its goal of selecting better qualified and more suitable candidates for entering undergraduate programs. The MUnSyI is a 310-item designed to capture 4 intrinsic qualities i.e., Personality, Career Interest, Integrity and Emotional Quotient. Data were secondary data sources collected by Majlis Peperiksaan Malaysia and USM and analyzed using Winsteps version 3.71.0.1. Research finding revealed that items from the 30 subscales represented a broad range of abilities, with major exception being a lack of items at the lower and upper extremes of the subscales. The items which show misfit and DIF effects (across gender, ethnic and academic qualifications) are should be modified or excluded from MUnSyI. The results suggested that each of the MUnSyI subscales did not contain items that fully measured the latent trait. Further research is needed to determine which test constructs or scales offer the best predictive validity because the MUnSyI score alone is relatively poor predictor of student’s academic performance. In addition, changing of the university programs is not a practice encouraged by the university administration. Therefore, selection process must be good predictors of success at university and also continuation in careers that deliver optimum benefits for the student because generally, an individual will remain in his/her career based on the field studied in first degree. Therefore, adding another suitable scale alongside career interest scale and personality scale has to be done to ensure the screening process is accurate, transparent, consistent, and efficient. | en_US |
