Abstract
Introduction: The effect of instructions of marking on item analysis during an MCQ examination was
studied. Material and Methods: It was an observational type of longitudinal study conducted in
students of any year. The students were given the same MCQ test twice with surprise. There were no
instructions regarding negative marking during the first test (T1),whereas instructions were given for
the second test (T2). The Raw score, Negative score and Corrected score along with Difficulty and
Discrimination index of each MCQ was calculated.

Results: There was no statistically significant between the indices when the values of T1 and T2 were
compared. There was statistically significant inverse correlation found between the difficulty index
and the number of students who did not attempt the respective MCQ

Conclusion: The Difficulty Index and Discrimination Index do not change with Conventional test and
test with instructions of negative marking. Thus, these indices form an important tool for MCQs
irrespective of the conventional and negative marking.

Keywords: Difficulty index, Discrimination index, Multiple choice questions, Negative marking,
Surprise test.
