Kylie Gorney; Mark D. Reckase – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2025
In computerized adaptive testing, item exposure control methods are often used to provide a more balanced usage of the item pool. Many of the most popular methods, including the restricted method (Revuelta and Ponsoda), use a single maximum exposure rate to limit the proportion of times that each item is administered. However, Barrada et al.…

Umi Laili Yuhana; Eko Mulyanto Yuniarno; Wenny Rahayu; Eric Pardede – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
In an online learning environment, it is important to establish a suitable assessment approach that can be adapted on the fly to accommodate the varying learning paces of students. At the same time, it is essential that assessment criteria remain compliant with the expected learning outcomes of the relevant education standard which predominantly…

Morris, Scott B.; Bass, Michael; Howard, Elizabeth; Neapolitan, Richard E. – International Journal of Testing, 2020
The standard error (SE) stopping rule, which terminates a computer adaptive test (CAT) when the "SE" is less than a threshold, is effective when there are informative questions for all trait levels. However, in domains such as patient-reported outcomes, the items in a bank might all target one end of the trait continuum (e.g., negative…

Stark, Stephen; Chernyshenko, Oleksandr S. – International Journal of Testing, 2011
This article delves into a relatively unexplored area of measurement by focusing on adaptive testing with unidimensional pairwise preference items. The use of such tests is becoming more common in applied non-cognitive assessment because research suggests that this format may help to reduce certain types of rater error and response sets commonly…

Makransky, Guido; Glas, Cees A. W. – International Journal of Testing, 2013
Cognitive ability tests are widely used in organizations around the world because they have high predictive validity in selection contexts. Although these tests typically measure several subdomains, testing is usually carried out for a single subdomain at a time. This can be ineffective when the subdomains assessed are highly correlated. This…

An Investigation of Scale Drift for Arithmetic Assessment of ACCUPLACER®. Research Report No. 2010-2
Deng, Hui; Melican, Gerald – College Board, 2010
The current study was designed to extend the current literature to study scale drift in CAT as part of improving quality control and calibration process for ACCUPLACER, a battery of large-scale adaptive placement tests. The study aims to evaluate item parameter drift using empirical data that span four years from the ACCUPLACER Arithmetic…

Stone, Elizabeth; Davey, Tim – Educational Testing Service, 2011
There has been an increased interest in developing computer-adaptive testing (CAT) and multistage assessments for K-12 accountability assessments. The move to adaptive testing has been met with some resistance by those in the field of special education who express concern about routing of students with divergent profiles (e.g., some students with…

Yang, Chih-Wei; Kuo, Bor-Chen; Liao, Chen-Huei – Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology - TOJET, 2011
The aim of the present study was to develop an on-line assessment system with constructed response items in the context of elementary mathematics curriculum. The system recorded the problem solving process of constructed response items and transfered the process to response codes for further analyses. An inference mechanism based on artificial…

Glas, Cees A. W.; Geerlings, Hanneke – Studies in Educational Evaluation, 2009
Pupil monitoring systems support the teacher in tailoring teaching to the individual level of a student and in comparing the progress and results of teaching with national standards. The systems are based on the availability of an item bank calibrated using item response theory. The assessment of the students' progress and results can be further…

Frey, Andreas; Seitz, Nicki-Nils – Studies in Educational Evaluation, 2009
The paper gives an overview of multidimensional adaptive testing (MAT) and evaluates its applicability in educational and psychological testing. The approach of Segall (1996) is described as a general framework for MAT. The main advantage of MAT is its capability to increase measurement efficiency. In simulation studies conceptualizing situations…

Milman, Lisa H.; Holland, Audrey; Kaszniak, Alfred W.; D'Agostino, Jerry; Garrett, Merrill; Rapcsak, Steve – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2008
Purpose: The Scales of Cognitive and Communicative Ability for Neurorehabilitation (SCCAN; L. Milman & A. Holland, 2007) was developed in the hospital setting to address changes in assessment practice. The SCCAN was designed to provide an overview of impairment and activity limitations across 8 cognitive scales (Speech Comprehension, Oral…

Frey, Andreas; Carstensen, Claus H. – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2009
On a general level, the objective of diagnostic classifications models (DCMs) lies in a classification of individuals regarding multiple latent skills. In this article, the authors show that this objective can be achieved by multidimensional adaptive testing (MAT) as well. The authors discuss whether or not the restricted applicability of DCMs can…

Xu, Xueli; Douglas, Jeff – Psychometrika, 2006
Nonparametric item response models have been developed as alternatives to the relatively inflexible parametric item response models. An open question is whether it is possible and practical to administer computerized adaptive testing with nonparametric models. This paper explores the possibility of computerized adaptive testing when using…

Bergstrom, Betty A.; Stahl, John A. – 1992
This paper reports a method for assessing the adequacy of existing item banks for computer adaptive testing. The method takes into account content specifications, test length, and stopping rules, and can be used to determine if an existing item bank is adequate to administer a computer adaptive test efficiently across differing levels of examinee…

Lei, Pui-Wa; Chen, Shu-Ying; Yu, Lan – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2006
Mantel-Haenszel and SIBTEST, which have known difficulty in detecting non-unidirectional differential item functioning (DIF), have been adapted with some success for computerized adaptive testing (CAT). This study adapts logistic regression (LR) and the item-response-theory-likelihood-ratio test (IRT-LRT), capable of detecting both unidirectional…
