Chen, Hanwei; Cui, Zhongmin; Zhu, Rongchun; Gao, Xiaohong – ACT, Inc., 2010
The most critical feature of a common-item nonequivalent groups equating design is that the average score difference between the new and old groups can be accurately decomposed into a group ability difference and a form difficulty difference. Two widely used observed-score linear equating methods, the Tucker and the Levine observed-score methods,…
