Direct linkHarold Doran; Testsuhiro Yamada; Ted Diaz; Emre Gonulates; Vanessa Culver – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2025
Computer adaptive testing (CAT) is an increasingly common mode of test administration offering improved test security, better measurement precision, and the potential for shorter testing experiences. This article presents a new item selection algorithm based on a generalized objective function to support multiple types of testing conditions and…

Peer reviewedBan, Jae-Chun; Hanson, Bradley A.; Yi, Qing; Harris, Deborah J. – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2002
Compared three online pretest calibration scaling methods through simulation: (1) marginal maximum likelihood with one expectation maximization (EM) cycle (OEM) method; (2) marginal maximum likelihood with multiple EM cycles (MEM); and (3) M. Stocking's method B. MEM produced the smallest average total error in parameter estimation; OEM yielded…
