This study aims to compare the scale values obtained from pairwise comparison scaling method and Rasch Analysis. The study was conducted with 185 university students in the Spring Semester of 2015-2016 academic year. The data were collected in two stages. At the first stage, the participants were asked to make a pairwise comparison of six subjects taught in the Measurement and Evaluation course and to say which one was more difficult for them. Using the data collected in this way, scaling was performed through pairwise comparisons. At the second stage, the participants were asked to grade the six subjects as easy, medium and difficult by taking the difficulty levels of the subjects into consideration. The data obtained from this application were analyzed according to the Rasch model. It was observed that the ordering made in relation to the difficulty levels of the subjects through pairwise comparison method and through Rasch analysis was the same. Besides ordering, the closeness of the difficulty levels of the subjects were also found similar in both methods. These results demonstrate that the scaling values calculated in pairwise comparison scaling method and in Rasch analysis are compatible.
