Ringkasan Dokumen
I. Introduction
This section outlines the background of the study, emphasizing the increasing relevance of computer-aided testing in psychology. It discusses the evolution of computer use from mere calculation tools to integral components in various fields, particularly in education and psychology. The introduction presents the Edwards Personal Preference Schedule (EPPS) as a suitable candidate for computerization due to its objective nature and the potential benefits it brings in terms of efficiency and accuracy in psychological assessments.
II. Theoretical Foundations
This section provides a comprehensive overview of the theoretical frameworks guiding the research. It covers Computer Aided Testing (CAT), detailing its history, definitions, advantages, and disadvantages. The EPPS is introduced, explaining its historical context, definitions, strengths, and weaknesses. The concept of usability is defined, highlighting its importance in the development and evaluation of user interfaces, particularly in educational applications. Key aspects of usability are discussed, which will serve as the basis for the research methodology.
