Computerized Mastery Testing Using Fuzzy Set Decision Theory.

Du, Yi; And Others

Applied Measurement in Education, v6 n3 p181-93 1993

A new computerized mastery test is described that builds on the Lewis and Sheehan procedure (sequential testlets) (1990), but uses fuzzy set decision theory to determine stopping rules and the Rasch model to calibrate items and estimate abilities. Differences between fuzzy set and Bayesian methods are illustrated through an example. (SLD)
