This study proposed a recursion-based analytical approach to assess measurement precision of ability estimation and classification accuracy in multistage adaptive tests (MSTs). A simulation study was conducted to compare the proposed recursion-based analytical method with an analytical method proposed by Park, Kim, Chung, and Dodd and with the…

This study applied the mode of on-the-fly assembled multistage adaptive testing to cognitive diagnosis (CD-OMST). Several and several module assembly methods for CD-OMST were proposed and compared in terms of measurement precision, test security, and constrain management. The module assembly methods in the study included the maximum priority index…
