Michael Bass; Scott Morris; Sheng Zhang – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2025
Administration of patient-reported outcome measures (PROs), using multidimensional computer adaptive tests (MCATs) has the potential to reduce patient burden, but the efficiency of MCAT depends on the degree to which an individual's responses fit the psychometric properties of the assessment. Assessing patients' symptom burden through the…

Although advances have improved our ability to describe the measurement precision of a test, it often remains challenging to summarize how well a test is performing overall. Reliability, for example, provides an overall summary of measurement precision, but it is sample-specific and might not reflect the potential usefulness of a test if the…
