Maximum likelihood estimates of item parameters of a scholastic aptitude test were computed using the normal and logistic models. The goodness of fit of ogives specified by the pairs of item parameters to the observed data was determined for all items. While negligible differences in the limen values were found, differences in item discrimination indices indicated that interpretation of these indices requires separate frames of reference. The empirical results showed the logistic model to be a useful alternative to the normal model in item analysis.
