Creating IRT-Based Parallel Test Forms Using the Genetic Algorithm Method
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Sun, Koun-Tem; Chen, Yu-Jen; Tsai, Shu-Yen; Cheng, Chien-Fen – Applied Measurement in Education, 2008
In educational measurement, the construction of parallel test forms is often a combinatorial optimization problem that involves the time-consuming selection of items to construct tests having approximately the same test information functions (TIFs) and constraints. This article proposes a novel method, genetic algorithm (GA), to construct parallel…

Using Bilingual Respondents To Evaluate Translated-Adapted Items.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Sireci, Stephen G.; Berberoglu, Giray – Applied Measurement in Education, 2000
Studied a method for investigating the equivalence of translated-adapted items using bilingual test takers through item response theory. Results from an English-Turkish course evaluation form completed by 688 Turkish students indicate that the methodology is effective in flagging items that function differentially across languages and informing…
