Technology-enhanced items (TEIs) are innovative, computer-delivered test items that allow test takers to better interact with the test environment compared to traditional multiple-choice items (MCIs). The interactive nature of TEIs offer improved construct coverage compared with MCIs but little research exists regarding students' performance on…

We reported in detail on the development of the CALT, including item banking, determination of suitable item response theory (IRT) models for item…

Sawaki, Yasuyo; Kim, Hae-Jin; Gentile, Claudia – Language Assessment Quarterly, 2009
In cognitive diagnosis a Q-matrix (Tatsuoka, 1983, 1990), which is an incidence matrix that defines the relationships between test items and constructs of interest, has great impact on the nature of performance feedback that can be provided to score users. The purpose of the present study was to identify meaningful skill coding categories that…
