Computerized Adaptive Testing under Nonparametric IRT Models
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
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…

Yan, Duanli; Lewis, Charles; Stocking, Martha – 1998
It is unrealistic to suppose that standard item response theory (IRT) models will be appropriate for all new and currently considered computer-based tests. In addition to developing new models, researchers will need to give some attention to the possibility of constructing and analyzing new tests without the aid of strong models. Computerized…
