Abstract—In many different situations, students or more
generally individuals fill forms or surveys. Such forms could be
used to evaluate the knowledge of students after a lesson in a
classroom or could form a global evaluation of all the students
in a country. More generally a survey aims at gathering the
opinion of people on a particular subject. In such a case, item
analysis gives interesting information on how the items have
been answered. In this paper, we present the Statistical
Implicative Analysis (SIA) that produces oriented rules. A
survey about the future of students in the different schools of
the ESPOCH is studied to highlight the interest of using SIA in
order to be able to analyze the general behavior of the
population.
Index Terms—Statistical implicative analysis, item response
theory.
