Stocking, Martha L.; Lewis, Charles – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 1998
Ensuring item and pool security in a continuous testing environment is explored through a new method of controlling exposure rate of items conditional on ability level in computerized testing. Properties of this conditional control on exposure rate, when used in conjunction with a particular adaptive testing algorithm, are explored using simulated…

Yan, Duanli; Lewis, Charles; Stocking, Martha – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2004
It is unrealistic to suppose that standard item response theory (IRT) models will be appropriate for all the new and currently considered computer-based tests. In addition to developing new models, we also need to give attention to the possibility of constructing and analyzing new tests without the aid of strong models. Computerized adaptive…
