Peer reviewedDolker, Michael; And Others – Psychometrika, 1982
Efron's Monte Carlo bootstrap algorithm is shown to cause degeneracies in Pearson's r for sufficiently small samples. Two ways of preventing this problem when programing the bootstrap of r are considered. (Author)

Peer reviewedWasik, John L. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1979
A computer program to generate individualized objective test forms for use in a Student Faced Statistics (SPS) course is described. The program features disproportionate sampling from different item domains and enhanced character generation facility for test printing purposes. (Author)

Dobson, Douglas; Cook, Thomas J. – Evaluation Quarterly, 1979
A major problem in social science research is that of successfully carrying out the random assignment of persons to experimental and control groups. In this study a computer-based random assignment procedure operated successfully on a weekly basis for 17 consecutive weeks in a program serving over 360 ex-offenders. (CTM)

Peer reviewedCliff, Norman; And Others – Applied Psychological Measurement, 1979
Monte Carlo research with TAILOR, a program using implied orders as a basis for tailored testing, is reported. TAILOR typically required about half the available items to estimate, for each simulated examinee, the responses on the remainder. (Author/CTM)
