Raborn, Anthony W.; Leite, Walter L.; Marcoulides, Katerina M. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2019
Short forms of psychometric scales have been commonly used in educational and psychological research to reduce the burden of test administration. However, it is challenging to select items for a short form that preserve the validity and reliability of the scores of the original scale. This paper presents and evaluates multiple automated methods…
