The effect of constructing such a test, when viewed from the perspective of item response theory, is test scores that are precise for examinees whose trait levels are near the point at which the test is peaked; as examinee trait levels deviate from the mean, the precision of their scores decreases substantially. Results of a small simulation study demonstrate that when peaked tests are ―off target‖ for an examinee, their scores are biased and have spuriously high standard deviations, reflecting substantial amounts of error. These errors can reduce the correlations of these kinds of scores with other variables and adversely affect the results of standard statistical tests. By contrast, scores from adaptive tests are essentially unbiased and have standard deviations that are much closer to true values. Basic concepts of adaptive testing are introduced and fully adaptive computerized tests (CATs) based on IRT are described. Several examples of response records from CATs are discussed to illustrate how CATs function. Some operational issues, including item exposure, content balancing, and enemy items are also briefly discussed. It is concluded that because CAT constructs a unique test for examinee, scores from CATs will be more precise and should provide better data for social science research and applications.1 aWeiss, DJ uhttp://iacat.org/content/better-data-better-measurements-using-computerized-adaptive-testing00933nas a2200133 4500008004100000245006700041210006500108260004700173490000700220520046100227100001800688700001400706856007900720 2011 eng d00aA framework for the development of computerized adaptive tests0 aframework for the development of computerized adaptive tests bPractical Assessment Research & Evaluation0 v163 aA substantial amount of research has been conducted over the past 40 years on technical aspects of computerized adaptive testing (CAT), such as item selection algorithms, item exposure controls, and termination criteria.

Assessing individual change is an important topic in both psychological and educational measurement. An adaptive measurement of change (AMC) method had previously been shown to exhibit greater efficiency in detecting change than conventional nonadaptive methods. However, little work had been done to compare different procedures within the AMC framework. This study introduced a new item selection criterion and two new test statistics for detecting change with AMC that were specifically designed for the paradigm of hypothesis testing. In two simulation sets, the new methods for detecting significant change improved on existing procedures by demonstrating better adherence to Type I error rates and substantially better power for detecting relatively small change.

METHODS: Data were from 800 participants in outpatient treatment for a mood or anxiety disorder; they completed 616 items of the 626-item Mood and Anxiety Spectrum Scales (MASS) at two times. The first administration was used to design and evaluate a CAT version of the MASS by using post hoc simulation. The second confirmed the functioning of CAT in live testing. RESULTS: Tests of competing models based on item response theory supported the scale's bifactor structure, consisting of a primary dimension and four group factors (mood, panic-agoraphobia, obsessive-compulsive, and social phobia). Both simulated and live CAT showed a 95% average reduction (585 items) in items administered (24 and 30 items, respectively) compared with administration of the full MASS. The correlation between scores on the full MASS and the CAT version was .93. For the mood disorder subscale, differences in scores between two groups of depressed patients--one with bipolar disorder and one without--on the full scale and on the CAT showed effect sizes of .63 (p<.003) and 1.19 (p<.001) standard deviation units, respectively, indicating better discriminant validity for CAT. CONCLUSIONS: Instead of using small fixed-length tests, clinicians can create item banks with a large item pool, and a small set of the items most relevant for a given individual can be administered with no loss of information, yielding a dramatic reduction in administration time and patient and clinician burden.10a*Diagnosis, Computer-Assisted10a*Questionnaires10aAdolescent10aAdult10aAged10aAgoraphobia/diagnosis10aAnxiety Disorders/diagnosis10aBipolar Disorder/diagnosis10aFemale10aHumans10aMale10aMental Disorders/*diagnosis10aMiddle Aged10aMood Disorders/diagnosis10aObsessive-Compulsive Disorder/diagnosis10aPanic Disorder/diagnosis10aPhobic Disorders/diagnosis10aReproducibility of Results10aTime Factors1 aGibbons, R D1 aWeiss, DJ1 aKupfer, D J1 aFrank, E1 aFagiolini, A1 aGrochocinski, V J1 aBhaumik, D K1 aStover, A1 aBock, R D1 aImmekus, J C uhttp://iacat.org/content/using-computerized-adaptive-testing-reduce-burden-mental-health-assessment00569nas a2200109 4500008004100000245010200041210006900143260009700212100001600309700001400325856012000339 2007 eng d00aComparison of computerized adaptive testing and classical methods for measuring individual change0 aComparison of computerized adaptive testing and classical method aD.

OBJECTIVES: Item banks will be used as the foundation for developing short-form instruments and enabling computerized adaptive testing. The PROMIS Steering Committee selected 5 HRQOL domains for initial focus: physical functioning, fatigue, pain, emotional distress, and social role participation. This report provides an overview of the methods used in the PROMIS item analyses and proposed calibration of item banks. ANALYSES: Analyses include evaluation of data quality (eg, logic and range checking, spread of response distribution within an item), descriptive statistics (eg, frequencies, means), item response theory model assumptions (unidimensionality, local independence, monotonicity), model fit, differential item functioning, and item calibration for banking. RECOMMENDATIONS: Summarized are key analytic issues; recommendations are provided for future evaluations of item banks in HRQOL assessment.10a*Health Status10a*Information Systems10a*Quality of Life10a*Self Disclosure10aAdolescent10aAdult10aAged10aCalibration10aDatabases as Topic10aEvaluation Studies as Topic10aFemale10aHumans10aMale10aMiddle Aged10aOutcome Assessment (Health Care)/*methods10aPsychometrics10aQuestionnaires/standards10aUnited States1 aReeve, B B1 aHays, R D1 aBjorner, J B1 aCook, KF1 aCrane, P K1 aTeresi, J A1 aThissen, D1 aRevicki, D A1 aWeiss, DJ1 aHambleton, RK1 aLiu, H1 aGershon, RC1 aReise, S P1 aLai, J S1 aCella, D uhttp://iacat.org/content/psychometric-evaluation-and-calibration-health-related-quality-life-item-banks-plans-patient00477nas a2200109 4500008004500000245010200045210006900147300001000216490000700226100001400233856012000247 2004 Engldsh 00aComputerized Adaptive Testing for Effective and Efficient Measurement in Counseling and Education0 aComputerized Adaptive Testing for Effective and Efficient Measur a70-840 v371 aWeiss, DJ uhttp://iacat.org/content/computerized-adaptive-testing-effective-and-efficient-measurement-counseling-and-education00632nas a2200097 4500008004100000245010900041210006900150260018000219100001400399856012100413 1995 eng d00aImproving individual differences measurement with item response theory and computerized adaptive testing0 aImproving individual differences measurement with item response aD.

Ss were administered the ASVAB before enlisting and approximately 2 wks after entering active duty, and the CAT tests were administered to Ss approximately 24 hrs after arriving at the recruit depot. Results indicate that 3 adaptive subtests correlated as well with ASVAB as did the 2nd administration of the ASVAB, although CAT subtests contained only half the number of items. Factor analysis showed CAT subtests to load on the same factors as the corresponding ASVAB subtests, indicating that the same abilities were being measured. It is concluded that CAT can achieve the same measurement precision as a conventional test, with half the number of items.
