Peer reviewedHambleton, Ronald K.; And Others – Journal of Educational Measurement, 1983
A new method was developed to assist in the selection of a test length by utilizing computer simulation procedures and item response theory. A demonstration of the method presents results which address the influences of item pool heterogeneity matched to the objectives of interest and the method of item selection. (Author/PN)
