A Comparison of Procedures for Content-Sensitive Item Selection in Computerized Adaptive Tests.
Kingsbury, G. Gage; Zara, Anthony R.
Applied Measurement in Education, v4 n3 p241-61 1991
This simulation investigated two procedures that reduce differences between paper-and-pencil testing and computerized adaptive testing (CAT) by making CAT content sensitive. Results indicate that the price in terms of additional test items of using constrained CAT for content balancing is much smaller than that of using testlets. (SLD)
