Empirical Ensemble Equating Under the NEAT Design Inspired by Machine Learning Ideology
Methodology, 2023 This study proposes an empirical ensemble equating (3E) approach that collectively selects, adopts, weighs, and combines outputs from different sources to take and combine advantage of equating techniques in various score intervals. The ensemble idea was

A Critical View on the NEAT Equating Design: Statistical Modeling and Identifiability Problems
Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2022 The nonequivalent groups with anchor test (NEAT) design is widely used in test equating. Under this design, two groups of examinees are administered different test forms with each test form containing a subset of common items. Because test takers from different groups are assigned only one test form, missing score data emerge by design rendering some ...

Calculating Bias in Test Score Equating in a NEAT Design. [PDF]
Appl Psychol MeasTest score equating is used to make scores from different test forms comparable, even when groups differ in ability. In practice, the non-equivalent group with anchor test (NEAT) design is commonly used. The overall aim was to compare the amount of bias under different conditions when using either chained equating or frequency estimation with five ...

Outlier Detection Using t-test in Rasch IRT Equating under NEAT Design. [PDF]
Appl Psychol Meas, 2023 In equating practice, the existence of outliers in the anchor items may deteriorate the equating accuracy and threaten the validity of test scores. Therefore, stability of the anchor item performance should be evaluated before conducting equating. This study used simulation to investigate the performance of the t-test method in detecting outliers and ...
