Peer reviewedLuecht, Richard M.; Hirsch, Thomas M. – Applied Psychological Measurement, 1992
Derivations of several item selection algorithms for use in fitting test items to target information functions (IFs) are described. These algorithms, which use an average growth approximation of target IFs, were tested by generating six test forms and were found to provide reliable fit. (SLD)
