Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The degree of consistency between the written test questions of the Preschool Teacher Qualification Examination and the examination outline not only reflects the scientific nature of the exam question-setting and the practicality of the outline, but also affects candidates' review and preparation strategies. Strengthening research on the written test questions of the Preschool Teacher Qualification Examination is of great significance for improving the quality of exam question-setting and promoting the construction and selection of high-quality early childhood education teachers. This study takes 11 sets of test questions of the "Knowledge and Ability of Care and Education" in the Preschool Teacher Qualification Examination from 2019 to 2024 as the research objects. It employs a qualitative and quantitative combined analysis method to calculate and analyze the consistency between the 11 sets of questions and the outline from aspects such as the "knowledge dimension," "cognitive process dimension," and "consistency coefficient." The results show that there is no statistically significant consistency between the test questions and the outline over the past six years. Based on this, the study puts forward relevant suggestions and opinions, with the expectation of providing data support and theoretical basis for subsequent research on the Preschool Teacher Qualification Examination and guidance for exam preparation.
