Development and validity of problems with contradictory information and no specified universal set to measure the truth-seeking of pre-service mathematics teachers

Truth-seeking is a predictor of whether
pre-service mathematics teachers have critical thinking
dispositions. The effort to familiarize the truth-seeking
of pre-service mathematics teachers is realized by
giving the problems with contradictory information
and the problems with no specified universal set
continuously. The aim is to develop the problems that
can measure the truth-seeking of pre-service
mathematics teachers. The participants were 184
mathematics education students from six universities
in Indonesia. The development steps used were define,
design, and develop. Data were analyzed by using item
response theory. The findings and conclusions were
reached and the results indicated that problems were
developed are valid to measure the truth-seeking of
pre-service mathematics teachers.
