Boyle, Andrew; Hutchison, Dougal – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2009
This article asserts the importance of e-assessment. It further suggests that assessment questions and tasks will change substantially as the art of e-assessment progresses. The article then exemplifies sophisticated e-assessment tasks, notes taxonomic schemes that have attempted to classify them and seeks to identify aspects of their definition.…

Rudner, Lawrence M. – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 1990
Three major pragmatic issues in computerized testing are addressed: (1) encouraging teacher use; (2) reporting of information; and (3) test construction. Reference is made to four related articles. Additional areas for research include reporting of test information; item bank standards; validity; and rules for stopping in computerized testing.…

Wise, Steven L.; Plake, Barbara S. – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 1989
Research dealing with the administration of tests via computer is reviewed. Several issues related to computerized testing are discussed, and areas in need of additional research are identified. The focus is on education-related ability and achievement testing; psychological tests and computer-based simulations are not addressed. (SLD)

Meier, Scott T. – Computers in Human Behavior, 1988
Description of the development of a theoretically based instrument--the Computer Aversion Scale (CAVS)--to measure negative reactions to computers, focuses on the use of microcomputers in the mental health field. Previous efforts to assess computer anxiety are reviewed, and studies testing the reliability and validity of the CAVS are described.…

Alderson, J. Charles – 1991
A discussion of trends and progress in language testing looks at movement in the field since 1980, based on the themes and content of national and international conferences; trends in test content, method, and analysis; and work on the nature of proficiency and of language learning. It is proposed that movement evidenced by conferences is largely…
