CUTOFF is a program to identify the most efficient classification prediction cutting score. It ranks the scores of a criterion and a comparison group and organizes them into cumulative frequency tables allowing for immediate display of an index of correct identifications associated with each score.

A computer simulation of Bayes' Theorem was conducted in order to determine the probability that an examinee was a master conditional upon his test score. The inputs were: number of mastery states assumed, test length, prior expectation of masters in the examinee population, and conditional probability of a master getting a randomly selected test…
