      abstract = {The central objective of this study was the application of two-parameter latent trait model(2-PLM) in the construction and validation of Agricultural science achievement test. The study was theoretically anchored item response theory while adopting the instrumentation research design. Two objectives and two research questions guided the study and a  validation sample of 1065 students out of a total population of 61045  senior secondary two students in Rivers state was drawn through a multistage sampling  procedure ranging from cluster to balloting to proportionate stratified. The data analyses conducted showed the ASAT items had suitable difficulty index ranged from -3.733 to +2.112 and discrimination indices values ranging from 0.120  to +5.676.. Several recommendations were made, amongst them was that the 2-PLM be frequently employed to determine the credibility of Agricultural Science achievement tests taken by secondary school students.},
