represented by the shaded band across the map). The next two sets of columns display the thresholds for the two written-response items—for example, the threshold levels for scores of 2 and 3 on written-response item 1 are represented by 1.2 and 1.3, respectively (although each item is scored on a scale of 1 to 5 on this particular examination, only the part of the scale where a person would be most likely to get a score of 2 or 3 on either item is shown)— and the probability that a person at 500 on the scale would score at that particular score level on each item. The software also displays, for a person at the selected point on the logit scale, the expected score total on the multiple-choice section (Figure 5 does not show this part of the display), and the expected score on each of the written response items.
