A Comparison of IRT Observed Score Kernel Equating and Several Equating Methods [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2020 Item response theory (IRT) observed score kernel equating was evaluated and compared with equipercentile equating, IRT observed score equating, and kernel equating methods by varying the sample size and test length.

Harmonizing the CBCL and SDQ ADHD scores by using linear equating, kernel equating, item response theory and machine learning methods [PDF]
Frontiers in PsychologyIntroductionA problem that applied researchers and practitioners often face is the fact that different institutions within research consortia use different scales to evaluate the same construct which makes comparison of the results and pooling ...

How Important is the Choice of Bandwidth in Kernel Equating? [PDF]
Applied Psychological Measurement, 2021 Kernel equating uses kernel smoothing techniques to continuize the discrete score distributions when equating test scores from an assessment test. The degree of smoothness of the continuous approximations is determined by the bandwidth.

Efficiency Analysis of Item Response Theory Kernel Equating for Mixed-Format Tests [PDF]
Applied Psychological Measurement, 2023 This study aims to evaluate the performance of Item Response Theory (IRT) kernel equating in the context of mixed-format tests by comparing it to IRT observed score equating and kernel equating with log-linear presmoothing.

Comparison of Kernel Equating and Kernel Local Equating in Item Response Theory Observed Score Equating [PDF]
Eğitimde ve Psikolojide Ölçme ve Değerlendirme Dergisi, 2021 The present study aims to compare the Kernel equating and Kernel local equating methods in observed score equating. Functions and error estimates regarding the difference between raw and equated scores and the scores equated by Stocking-Lord and Haebara true-score equating methods in Kernel local equating and Kernel equating were examined in Item ...

A Comparative Evaluation of Kernel Equating and Test Characteristic Curve Equating [PDF]
Applied Psychological Measurement, 2018 This study compares the kernel equating (KE) and test characteristic curve (TCC) equating methods using the nonequivalent anchor test equating design. In this Monte Carlo study, four independent variables were examined: sample size, test length, average

Comparison of Kernel equating methods under NEAT and NEC designs [PDF]
International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 2023 In this study, Kernel test equating methods were compared under NEAT and NEC designs. In NEAT design, Kernel post-stratification and chain equating methods taking into account optimal and large bandwidths were compared.

Local Observed‐Score Kernel Equating
Journal of Educational Measurement, 2014 Three local observed‐score kernel equating methods that integrate methods from the local equating and kernel equating frameworks are proposed. The new methods were compared with their earlier counterparts with respect to such measures as bias—as defined by Lord's criterion of equity—and percent relative error.
