De Corte, Wilfried – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2004
The article describes a Windows program to estimate the expected value and sampling distribution function of the adverse impact ratio for general multistage selections. The results of the program can also be used to predict the risk that a future selection decision will result in an outcome that reflects the presence of adverse impact. The method…

DeMars, Christine E. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2005
Type I error rates for PARSCALE's fit statistic were examined. Data were generated to fit the partial credit or graded response model, with test lengths of 10 or 20 items. The ability distribution was simulated to be either normal or uniform. Type I error rates were inflated for the shorter test length and, for the graded-response model, also for…
