To improve the calibration accuracy and calibration efficiency of cognitive diagnostic computerized adaptive testing (CD-CAT) for new items and, ultimately, contribute to the widespread application of CD-CAT in practice, the current article proposed a Gini-based online calibration method that can simultaneously calibrate the Q-matrix and item…

Ensuring item and pool security in a continuous testing environment is explored through a new method of controlling exposure rate of items conditional on ability level in computerized testing. Properties of this conditional control on exposure rate, when used in conjunction with a particular adaptive testing algorithm, are explored using simulated…
