Peer reviewedBudescu, David – Journal of Educational Measurement, 1985

Use of some monotonic function of this correlation as a measure of equating efficiency is suggested. A model relating anchor test length and test reliability to this measure of efficiency is presented. (Author/DWH)

The Netherlands' secondary education system is highly differentiated, with four different school types for four scholastic ability levels. Final examinations must accommodate these four levels, and require a test-independent definition of the intended final ability levels as well as a sample-free evaluation of the range of ability levels at which…
