Real-Data Simulation of Computerized Adaptive Bayesian Scaling.

Jones, W. Paul

Measurement and Evaluation in Counseling and Development, v26 n2 p143-51 Jul 1993

Investigated model for reducing time for administration of Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) using real-data simulation of Bayesian scaling in computerized adaptive administration. Findings from simulation study using data from 127 undergraduates are strongly supportive of use of Bayesian scaled computerized adaptive administration of MBTI. Obtained significant reduction in number of items presented with little loss in classification accuracy. (Author/NB)
