Empirical evidence is presented related to the effects of using a stratified sampling of items in multiple matrix sampling on the accuracy of estimates of the population mean. Data were obtained from a sample of 600 high school students for a 36-item mathematics test and a 40-item vocabulary test, both subtests of the Iowa Tests of Educational…

Brandenburg, Dale C.; Forsyth, Robert A. – 1973
Multiple matrix sampling (MMS) procedures were utilized to determine the necessary parameters of a Pearson Type I curve. Empirical norms distributions were approximated by both the Type I model and the negative hypergeometric model. Four existing ITED norms distributions, two subtests and two grades, were approximated by the MMS procedures. Two…
