Elements of Adaptive Testing Summary

Elements of Adaptive Testing by Wim J. van der Linden

The arrival of the computer in educational and psychological testing has led to the current popularity of adaptive testing---a testing format in which the computer uses statistical information about the test items to automatically adapt their selection to a real-time update of the test taker's ability estimate. This book covers such key features of adaptive testing as item selection and ability estimation, adaptive testing with multidimensional abilities, sequencing adaptive test batteries, multistage adaptive testing, item-pool design and maintenance, estimation of item and item-family parameters, item and person fit, as well as adaptive mastery and classification testing. It also shows how these features are used in the daily operations of several large-scale adaptive testing programs.

Elements of Adaptive Testing Reviews

From the reviews:

Elements of Adaptive Testing is an excellent book on the current state-of-the-art in CAT ... . a highly advanced text, which makes the book most suitable for researchers in the field of adaptive testing. ... Elements of Adaptive Testing covers key features of adaptive testing and addresses many complex design and analysis issues involved, thereby making a crucial read for researchers in any field of CAT. (Usama S. Ali and Peter W. van Rijn, Psychometrika, Vol. 78, 2013)
