Lim, Hwanggyu; Davey, Tim; Wells, Craig S. – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2021
This study proposed a recursion-based analytical approach to assess measurement precision of ability estimation and classification accuracy in multistage adaptive tests (MSTs). A simulation study was conducted to compare the proposed recursion-based analytical method with an analytical method proposed by Park, Kim, Chung, and Dodd and with the…

Jing Ma – ProQuest LLC, 2024
This study investigated the impact of scoring polytomous items later on measurement precision, classification accuracy, and test security in mixed-format adaptive testing. Utilizing the shadow test approach, a simulation study was conducted across various test designs, lengths, number and location of polytomous item. Results showed that while…

Cai, Liuhan; Albano, Anthony D.; Roussos, Louis A. – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2021
Multistage testing (MST), an adaptive test delivery mode that involves algorithmic selection of predefined item modules rather than individual items, offers a practical alternative to linear and fully computerized adaptive testing. However, interactions across stages between item modules and examinee groups can lead to challenges in item…

Ramsey Lee Cardwell – ProQuest LLC, 2022
The emergence of digital-first assessments is prompting reconsideration of, and innovation in, aspects of psychometrics, test validation, and test use. Using the Duolingo English Test (DET) as an example, this three-paper series seeks to address issues concerning the estimation of classification consistency and the reporting of results for such…

Kayla V. Campaña; Benjamin G. Solomon – Assessment for Effective Intervention, 2025
The purpose of this study was to compare the classification accuracy of data produced by the previous year's end-of-year New York state assessment, a computer-adaptive diagnostic assessment ("i-Ready"), and the gating combination of both assessments to predict the rate of students passing the following year's end-of-year state assessment…
