Feuer, Dale – Training, 1986
Discusses various aspects of computerized testing: advantages of immediate feedback, on-the-spot score reporting, retention of scores on disks, the computer's potential as a simulation device, expert tests, embedded tests, intelligent tests, and adaptive testing. (CT)

David, Carl W. – College Board Review, 1985
A scheme of testing that will clearly discern whether a student has learned the material that has been set out as the goal is discussed. The fear of computer-assisted testing is seen as so widespread that perhaps the idea is too far ahead of our time. (MLW)

Peer reviewedOosterhof, Albert C.; Salisbury, David F. – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 1985
The computer assisted testing (CAT) program at Florida State University's Assessment Resource Center is described. Three measurement issues (test quality, confidence in mastery decisions, and maintenance of test validity) and two instructional design issues (quality of instructional objectives and extended feedback following testing) important for…
