Peer reviewedBennett, Randy Elliot; Morley, Mary; Quardt, Dennis; Rock, Donald A. – Applied Measurement in Education, 2000
Investigated the functioning of a new computer-delivered graphical modeling (GM) response type for use in a graduate admissions assessment using two GM tests differing in item features randomly spiraled among participants. Results show GM scores to be reliable and moderately related to the quantitative section of the Graduate Record Examinations.…

Peer reviewedGallagher, Ann; Bennett, Randy Elliot; Cahalan, Cara; Rock, Donald A. – Educational Assessment, 2002
Evaluated whether variance due to computer-based presentation was associated with performance on a new constructed-response type, Mathematical Expression, that requires students to enter expressions. No statistical evidence of construct-irrelevant variance was detected for the 178 undergraduate and graduate students, but some examinees reported…

Peer reviewedEnright, Mary K.; Rock, Donald A.; Bennett, Randy Elliot – Journal of Educational Measurement, 1998
Examined alternative-item types and section configurations for improving the discriminant and convergent validity of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) general test using a computer-based test given to 388 examinees who had taken the GRE previously. Adding new variations of logical meaning appeared to decrease discriminant validity. (SLD)

Peer reviewedBennett, Randy Elliot; And Others – Applied Psychological Measurement, 1990
The relationship of an expert-system-scored constrained free-response item type to multiple-choice and free-response items was studied using data for 614 students on the College Board's Advanced Placement Computer Science (APCS) Examination. Implications for testing and the APCS test are discussed. (SLD)

This study evaluated expert system diagnoses of examinees' solutions to complex constructed-response algebra word problems. Problems were presented to three samples (30 college students each), each of which had taken the Graduate Record Examinations General Test. One sample took the problems in paper-and-pencil form and the other two on computer.…
