Some examples of CATs involving performance standards include the registered nurse exam and the Novell systems engineer exam. Although CATs do not require separate standard setting-methods, there are special issues to be addressed by test specialist who set performance standards on CATs. Setting standards on a CAT will typical require modifications on the procedures used with more traditional, fixed-form, paper-and -pencil examinations. The purpose of this chapter is to illustrate why CATs pose special challenges to the standard setter.
