Jyun-Hong Chen; Hsiu-Yi Chao – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2024
To solve the attenuation paradox in computerized adaptive testing (CAT), this study proposes an item selection method, the integer programming approach based on real-time test data (IPRD), to improve test efficiency. The IPRD method turns information regarding the ability distribution of the population from real-time test data into feasible test…
