Jyun-Hong Chen; Hsiu-Yi Chao – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2024
To solve the attenuation paradox in computerized adaptive testing (CAT), this study proposes an item selection method, the integer programming approach based on real-time test data (IPRD), to improve test efficiency. The IPRD method turns information regarding the ability distribution of the population from real-time test data into feasible test…

Zhang, Yanwei; Breithaupt, Krista; Tessema, Aster; Chuah, David – Online Submission, 2006
Two IRT-based procedures to estimate test reliability for a certification exam that used both adaptive (via a MST model) and non-adaptive design were considered in this study. Both procedures rely on calibrated item parameters to estimate error variance. In terms of score variance, one procedure (Method 1) uses the empirical ability distribution…
