Peer reviewedSanders, Piet F.; Verschoor, Alfred J. – Applied Psychological Measurement, 1998
Presents minimization and maximization models for parallel test construction under constraints. The minimization model constructs weakly and strongly parallel tests of minimum length, while the maximization model constructs weakly and strongly parallel tests with maximum test reliability. (Author/SLD)

Peer reviewedArmstrong, Ronald D.; Jones, Douglas H. – Applied Psychological Measurement, 1992
Polynomial algorithms are presented that are used to solve selected problems in test theory, and computational results from sample problems with several hundred decision variables are provided that demonstrate the benefits of these algorithms. The algorithms are based on optimization theory in networks (graphs). (SLD)
