SIMCA T 1.0: A SAS Computer Program for Simulating Computer Adaptive Testing
Raiche, Gilles; Blais, Jean-Guy
Applied Psychological Measurement, v30 n1 p60-61 2006
Monte Carlo methodologies are frequently applied to study the sampling distribution of the estimated proficiency level in adaptive testing. These methods eliminate real situational constraints. However, these Monte Carlo methodologies are not currently supported by the available software programs, and when these programs are available, their flexibility is limited. In this document, a commented computer program coded in SAS 6.08--and ulterior versions--language is proposed.
