The Asymptotic Equating Methodology and Other Test Equating Evaluation Procedures
… to evaluate the asymptotic performance of test equating methods and of various test equating indices. A test theoretic viewpoint is taken to develop the asymptotic equating methodology and the conditional equating analyses methodology. An asymptotic equating study may be thought of as a …

Computerized Adaptive Testing and Equating Methods With Nonparametric IRT Models
… flexible forms of nonparametric IRT models make test equating more challenging. Though linear equating under parametric IRT models is obvious and appropriate, it might not be appropriate for nonparametric models. Two approaches are proposed for test equating and examined through simulation as …

Effect of Sample Size on Irt Equating of Uni-Dimensional Tests in Common Item Non-Equivalent Group Design: a Monte Carlo Simulation Study
Test equating is important to large-scale testing programs because of the following two reasons: strict test security is a key concern for high-stakes tests and fairness of test equating is important for test takers. The question of adequacy of sample size often arises in test equating. However, …

An Empirical Investigation of the Validity of Secondary School Institutions Student Selection and Placement Test (Ssisspt) in Turkey
… study, increasing the number of items in each subtest, field testing the test items before using them in the operational test, equating the test forms from year to year, keeping the same number of items for primary content areas as well as for secondary content areas, and collecting further …

An Item Response Theory Approach to the Maintenance of Standards in Public Examinations in England
… standard can essentially be reduced under test theory to making comparisons between persons that are independent of the items on the basis of which these comparisons are made. Test theory however has been sparingly applied to comparability issues in UK public examinations. This study …
