The Effect of Numbers of Experts and Common Items on Cutting Score Equivalents Based on Expert Judgment.

Peer reviewed

Norcini, John; And Others – Applied Psychological Measurement, 1991

Effects of numbers of experts (NOEs) and common items (CIs) on the scaling of cutting scores from expert judgments were studied for 11,917 physicians taking 2 forms of a medical specialty examination. Increasing NOEs and CIs reduced error; beyond 5 experts and 25 CIs, error differences were small. (SLD)
