A Modified Beta Binomial Model with Applications to Multiple Choice and Taste Tests.

Peer reviewed

Morrison, Donald G.; Brockway, George – Psychometrika, 1979

A modified beta binomial model is presented for use in analyzing random guessing multiple choice tests and taste tests. Detection probabilities for each item are distributed beta across the population subjects. Properties for the observable distribution of correct responses are derived. Two concepts of true score estimates are presented.…

Real-Data Simulation of Computerized Adaptive Bayesian Scaling.

Peer reviewed

Jones, W. Paul – Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, 1993

Investigated model for reducing time for administration of Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) using real-data simulation of Bayesian scaling in computerized adaptive administration. Findings from simulation study using data from 127 undergraduates are strongly supportive of use of Bayesian scaled computerized adaptive administration of MBTI.…
