Peer reviewedBennett, Randy Elliot; Steffen, Manfred; Singley, Mark Kevin; Morley, Mary; Jacquemin, Daniel – Journal of Educational Measurement, 1997
Scoring accuracy and item functioning were studied for an open-ended response type test in which correct answers can take many different surface forms. Results with 1,864 graduate school applicants showed automated scoring to approximate the accuracy of multiple-choice scoring. Items functioned similarly to other item types being considered. (SLD)

Peer reviewedGarrison, Wayne M. – Educational Research Quarterly, 1986
This study utilized a straightforward system of crediting successes and assigning failures to items not administered during computerized adaptive testing (CAT) to determine if the data yielded by CAT could be used to monitor item calibrations over time. (Author/LMO)

Peer reviewedShermis, Mark D.; And Others – Journal of Research on Computing in Education, 1996
Describes a pilot study of computerized adaptive testing in the Michigan Educational Assessment Program's tenth-grade mathematics problem-solving and applications subtests. Comparisons are made to pencil-and-paper tests, and student reactions as determined by a posttest survey are discussed. (LRW)
