The Comparability of the Statistical Characteristics of Test Items Generated by Computer Algorithms.
Meisner, Richard; And Others – 1993
This paper presents a study on the generation of mathematics test items using algorithmic methods. The history of this approach is briefly reviewed and is followed by a survey of the research to date on the statistical parallelism of algorithmically generated mathematics items. Results are presented for 8 parallel test forms generated using 16…
