Abstract

From a model of Goldberg's Item Ambiguity. Index, it is assumed that there is a strong relationship between the Ambiguity Index values and the item difficulty. The respcnse latency and the ratings of judgemental confidence have been used as the measure of the item difficulty. And the intra-individual variability in understanding the meaning of the item, related to the item difficulty, has been investigated.<BR>Then, it is assumed that there are such relationships between these measures and the Ambiguity Index values as;<BR>1) the items of high Ambiguity Index values will have longer response latencies,<BR>2) the items of high Ambiguity Index values should be associated with lowered confiderice by the individual in his answers,<BR>3) the items of high Ambiguity Index values will have higher intra-individual variability in understanding the meaning of the items.<BR>Fifteen items of high Ambiguity Index values and fifteen items of low Ambiguity Index values have been taken from the results of the previous research. Subjects were 45 college students. In these items, the response latency, the ratings of judgemental confidence and the understanding of the meaning of items have been investigated twice at two weeks' interval.<BR>The above relationships have been ascertained.
