IRT Test Assembly Using Network-Flow Programming.

Armstrong, Ronald D.; Jones, Douglas H.; Kunce, Charles S.

Applied Psychological Measurement, v22 n3 p237-47 Sep 1998

Investigated the use of mathematical programming techniques to generate parallel test forms with passages and items based on item-response theory (IRT) using the Fundamentals of Engineering Examination. Generated four parallel test forms from the item bank of almost 1,100 items. Comparison with human-generated forms supports the mathematical network-flow approach. (SLD)
