On the Feasibility of Multiple Matching Tests--Variations on a Theme by Gulliksen.

Budescu, David V.

Applied Psychological Measurement, v12 n1 p5-14 Mar 1988

A multiple matching test--a 24-item Hebrew vocabulary test--was examined, in which distractors from several items are pooled into one list at the test's end. Construction of such tests was feasible. Reliability, validity, and reduction of random guessing were satisfactory when applied to data from 717 applicants to Israeli universities. (SLD)
