Computerized Administration of the Multidimensional Personality Questionnaire.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
DiLalla, David L. – Assessment, 1996
A computer-administered (CA) form of the Multidimensional Personality Questionnaire (MPQ) (A. Tellegen, 1982) was created, and scores of 126 college students were compared to those of 101 who took a paper-and-pencil MPQ. Multivariate analyses found no group differences for the CA format, and likelihood of profile validity was decreased. Results…

The MMPI Is Less Sensitive to the Automated Testing Format than It Is to Repeated Testing: Item and Scale Effects.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Schuldberg, David – Computers in Human Behavior, 1988
Describes study that investigated the effects of computerized test administration on undergraduates' responses to the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), and discusses methodological considerations important in evaluating the sensitivity of personality inventories in different administration formats. Results analyze the effects of…

Computerized Adaptive Mastery Tests as Expert Systems.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Frick, Theodore W. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1992
Discussion of expert systems and computerized adaptive tests describes two versions of EXSPRT, a new approach that combines uncertain inference in expert systems with sequential probability ratio test (SPRT) stopping rules. Results of two studies comparing EXSPRT to adaptive mastery testing based on item response theory and SPRT approaches are…
