Glas, Cees A. W.; Meijer, Rob R.; van Krimpen-Stoop, Edith M. L. A. – 1998
Recently, several person-fit statistics have been proposed to detect nonfitting response patterns. This study is designed to generalize an approach followed by Klauer (1995) to an adaptive testing system using the two-parameter logistic model (2PL) as a null model. The approach developed by Klauer is described, and some difficulties in…

Meijer, Rob R.; van Krimpen-Stoop, Edith M. L. A. – 1998
Several person-fit statistics have been proposed to detect item score patterns that do not fit an item response theory model. To classify response patterns as not fitting a model, a distribution of a person-fit statistic is needed. The null distributions of several fit statistics have been investigated using conventionally administered tests, but…

van der Linden, Wim J.; Scrams, David J.; Schnipke, Deborah L. – 1998
An item-selection algorithm to neutralize the differential effects of time limits on scores on computerized adaptive tests is proposed. The method is based on a statistical model for the response-time distributions of the examinees on items in the pool that is updated each time a new item has been administered. Predictions from the model are used…
