Peer reviewed

Dirkzwager, A. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1996

Linking the Standard and Advanced Forms of the Raven's Progressive Matrices in both the Pencil-and-Paper and Computer-Adaptive-Testing Formats.

This paper describes the use of the Rasch model to help implement computerized administration of the standard and advanced forms of Raven's Progressive Matrices (RPM), to compare relative item difficulties, and to convert scores between the standard and advanced forms. The sample consisted of 95 girls and 95 boys in Australia. (SLD)
