Peer reviewedLegg, Sue M.; Buhr, Dianne C. – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 1992
Three computerized adaptive tests (CATs) in mathematics, reading, and writing were administered to 628 community college students to determine whether examinees of different ethnic, gender, ability, and age groups, and computer experience were differentially affected. Some differences exist; however, they do not preclude use of CATs. (SLD)
