A Bayesian Decision-Theoretic Procedure for Use With Criterion-Referenced Tests

Peer reviewed

Swaminathan, H.; And Others – Journal of Educational Measurement, 1975

A decision-theoretic procedure is outlined which provides a framework within which Bayesian statistical methods can be employed with criterion-referenced tests to improve the quality of decision making in objectives based instructional programs. (Author/DEP)

Roudabush, Glenn E. – 1974

In this paper, several models for the psychometric nature of criterion-referenced tests are presented and results derived with implications for test construction, reliability and validity measures, and educational decision making. Both dichotomous and continuous underlying abilities to perform are considered. Illustrative data fitting both cases…
