Ozsoy, Seyma Nur; Kilmen, Sevilay – International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2023
In this study, Kernel test equating methods were compared under NEAT and NEC designs. In NEAT design, Kernel post-stratification and chain equating methods taking into account optimal and large bandwidths were compared. In the NEC design, gender and/or computer/tablet use was considered as a covariate, and Kernel test equating methods were…

Grochowalski, Joseph H.; Hendrickson, Amy – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2023
Test takers wishing to gain an unfair advantage often share answers with other test takers, either sharing all answers (a full key) or some (a partial key). Detecting key sharing during a tight testing window requires an efficient, easily interpretable, and rich form of analysis that is descriptive and inferential. We introduce a detection method…

Becker, Kirk; Meng, Huijuan – Journal of Applied Testing Technology, 2022
The rise of online proctoring potentially provides more opportunities for item harvesting and consequent brain dumping and shared "study guides" based on stolen content. This has increased the need for rapid approaches for evaluating and acting on suspicious test responses in every delivery modality. Both hiring proxy test takers and…

Cappaert, Kevin J.; Wen, Yao; Chang, Yu-Feng – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2018
Events such as curriculum changes or practice effects can lead to item parameter drift (IPD) in computer adaptive testing (CAT). The current investigation introduced a point- and weight-adjusted D[superscript 2] method for IPD detection for use in a CAT environment when items are suspected of drifting across test administrations. Type I error and…

Stradiotová, Eva; Némethová, Ildiko; Štefancík, Radoslav – Advanced Education, 2022
The article aims to find out the impact of online education on on-site education by analyzing the results achieved by the respondents in the tests. We used descriptive statistical methods to analyze the data. The reason was that such methods allow us to better understand the correlation between the results obtained in traditional testing and…

Sinharay, Sandip – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2016
Meijer and van Krimpen-Stoop noted that the number of person-fit statistics (PFSs) that have been designed for computerized adaptive tests (CATs) is relatively modest. This article partially addresses that concern by suggesting three new PFSs for CATs. The statistics are based on tests for a change point and can be used to detect an abrupt change…

Mavridis, A.; Tsiatsos, T. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2017
The aim of this study is to assess the impact of a 3D educational computer game on students' test anxiety and exam performance when used in evaluative situations as compared to the traditional method of examination. The participants of the study were students in tertiary education who were examined using game-based assessment and traditional…

Daffin, Lee William, Jr.; Jones, Ashley A. – Online Learning, 2018
As online education becomes a more popular and permanent option for obtaining an education after high school, it also raises questions as to the academic rigor of such classes and the academic integrity of the students taking the classes. The purpose of the current study is to explore the integrity issue and to investigate student performance on…

Sturz, Bradley R.; Bell, Z. Kade; Bodily, Kent D. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2018
During spatial reorientation, the use of local geometric cues (e.g., corner angles) and global geometric cues (e.g., principal axis) is differentially influenced by enclosure size. Local geometric cues exert more influence in large enclosures compared to small enclosures, whereas the use of global geometric cues is not influenced by changes in…

MacGregor, Philip C.; O'Reilly, Frances L.; Matt, John – Journal of Education and Training Studies, 2017
This study examined the following question: What is the relationship, if any, between COMPASS placement scores and the student success in the first online course during the students first semester? Discriminant function analysis was used to examine the relationship. This study used existing data from new students, who took the COMPASS placement…

Sinharay, Sandip; Wan, Ping; Choi, Seung W.; Kim, Dong-In – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2015
With an increase in the number of online tests, the number of interruptions during testing due to unexpected technical issues seems to be on the rise. For example, interruptions occurred during several recent state tests. When interruptions occur, it is important to determine the extent of their impact on the examinees' scores. Researchers such as…
