A Structural Comparison of Conventional and Adaptive Versions of the ASVAB.

Cudeck, Robert

Multivariate Behavioral Research, v20 n3 p305-22 Jul 1985

Twelve structural models of similarity were fitted to data from conventional and computer adaptive test (CAT) batteries measuring the same aptitude in a double cross-validation design. Three of the 12 models, including a multiplicative structure model, performed well, providing support for using CATs as replacements for conventional tests. (NSF)
