The Application of Latent Class Models in Adaptive Testing.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Macready, George B.; Dayton, C. Mitchell – Psychometrika, 1992
An adaptive testing algorithm is presented based on an alternative modeling framework, and its effectiveness is investigated in a simulation based on real data. The algorithm uses a latent class modeling framework in which assessed latent attributes are assumed to be categorical variables. (SLD)

An Automated Test Development of Parallel Tests from a Seed Test.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Armstrong, Ronald D.; And Others – Psychometrika, 1992
A method is presented and illustrated for simultaneously generating multiple tests with similar characteristics from the item bank by using binary programing techniques. The parallel tests are created to match an existing seed test item for item and to match user-supplied taxonomic specifications. (SLD)
