Wise, Steven L. – 1997
The perspective of the examinee during the administration of a computerized adaptive test (CAT) is discussed, focusing on issues of test development. Item review is the first issue discussed. Virtually no CATs provide the opportunity for the examinee to go back and review, and possibly change, answers. There are arguments on either side of the…

Buhendwa, Frank M. – 1996
Instruments used in a study by M. B. Kinzie and M. A. Delacourt (1991), the Attitude towards Computer Technologies (ACT) and the Self-efficacy for Computer Technologies (SCT), assess preservice teachers' perceived usefulness of and comfort level with specific computer technologies. This study uses a population confirmed to be similar to that used…

Witter, Stephen D.; And Others – 1994
A study determined the viability and effectiveness of the Computerized Competent Speaker Evaluation System. A total of 659 comments made by undergraduate students about the paper version of the Competent Speaker Speech Evaluation Form were subjected to two Q sorts. The 635 comments that emerged were incorporated into the evaluation system during…

Bennett, Randy Elliot – 1994
The Educational Testing Service is moving rapidly to computerize its tests for admissions to postsecondary education and occupational licensure/certification. Computerized tests offer important advantages, including immediate score reporting, the convenience of testing when the examinee wishes, and for adaptive tests, equal accuracy throughout the…

Kim, JinGyu – 1992
The relationships among teaching, testing, and learning are examined and reconceptualized based on different theories and computer adaptive testing. Approaches that integrate teaching, testing, and learning include: (1) behavioral psychology; (2) cognitive psychology; and (3) computer adaptive testing (CAT). Some behaviorists have assumed that all…

Siskind, Theresa G.; And Others – 1992
The instructional validity of computer administered tests was studied with a focus on whether differences in test scores and item behavior are a function of instructional mode (computer versus non-computer). In the first of 3 studies, performance test scores for approximately 400 high school students in 1990-91 for tasks accomplished with the…

Roth, Jeffrey; Crans, Gerald S.; Carter, Randy L.; Ariet, Mario; Resnick, Michael B. – 1999
This study examined the effects of high school course choices, grades, and Grade Ten Assessment Test scores (GTAT) in math and reading, along with race and gender, on student performance on a computerized placement test (CPT) administered upon entry to community colleges in Florida. The sample consisted of 19,736 African-American, white, and…

Shermis, Mark D.; And Others – 1992
The reliability of four branching algorithms commonly used in computer adaptive testing (CAT) was examined. These algorithms were: (1) maximum likelihood (MLE); (2) Bayesian; (3) modal Bayesian; and (4) crossover. Sixty-eight undergraduate college students were randomly assigned to one of the four conditions using the HyperCard-based CAT program,…

Ito, Kyoko; Sykes, Robert C. – 1994
Responses to previously calibrated items administered in a computerized adaptive testing (CAT) mode may be used to recalibrate the items. This live-data simulation study investigated the possibility, and limitations, of on-line adaptive recalibration of precalibrated items. Responses to items of a Rasch-based paper-and-pencil licensure examination…

Ariew, Robert A.; Dunkel, Patricia A. – 1989
The development of a prototype computer-assisted second language listening comprehension test is reported. The project investigated the feasibility of computer-adaptive second language listening tests using microcomputer equipment and developing model testing software. Tests for French and for English as a Second Language (ESL) were developed. The…

Canadian Commission of Employment and Immigration, Ottawa (Ontario). – 1983
This document collects five presentations in the field of vocational counseling and guidance. Its aim is to share research reports with vocational counselors, enhancing the level of this service in Canada. In the first paper, Benjamin Gottlieb discusses social networks and the gestalt of help-seeking, pointing out that persons are attached to…

Falsgraf, Carl; Semmer, Martie – Learning Languages, 2004
Teaching can be overwhelming and teachers can feel as if they are being pulled in many different directions unless they are able to point all of the complicated tasks connected to teaching in the same direction. The Center for Applied Second Language Studies (CASLS) has delivered online assessments called STAMP (Standards-based Measurement of…

Puhan, Gautam; Boughton, Keith A.; Kim, Sooyeon – ETS Research Report Series, 2005
The study evaluated the comparability of two versions of a teacher certification test: a paper-and-pencil test (PPT) and computer-based test (CBT). Standardized mean difference (SMD) and differential item functioning (DIF) analyses were used as measures of comparability at the test and item levels, respectively. Results indicated that effect sizes…

Nutter, Norma; And Others – 1989
The East Tennessee State University College of Education has begun removing objective testing from regularly scheduled class time and has begun using Macintosh computers for content tutoring and the evaluation of students at their convenience. The new testing program requires students to meet criteria for the number of correct responses within…

Adema, Jos J. – 1990
Data banks with items calibrated under an item response model can be used for the construction of tests. Mathematical programming models like the Maximin Model are formulated for computerized item selection from a bank. In this paper, mathematical programming models based on the Maximin Model are proposed for the construction of weakly parallel…
