Modeling Incorrect Responses to Multiple-Choice Items with Multilinear Formula Score Theory.

Peer reviewed

Drasgow, Fritz; And Others – Applied Psychological Measurement, 1989

Multilinear formula scoring (MFS) is reviewed, with emphasis on estimating option characteristic curves (OCSs). MFS was used to estimate OCSs for the arithmetic reasoning subtest of the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery for 2,978 examinees. A second analysis obtained OCSs for simulated data. The use of MFS is discussed. (SLD)

Some Item Analysis and Test Theory for a System of Computer-Assisted Test Construction for Individualized Instruction

Peer reviewed

Lord, Frederic M. – Applied Psychological Measurement, 1977

Under given conditions, conventional testing and computer-generated repeatable testing (CGRT) are equally effective for estimating examinee ability; CGRT is more effective for estimating the mean ability level of a group and less effective for estimating ability differences among individuals. These conclusion are drawn from domain-referenced test…
