Practical considerations in equating progress tests

Medical Teacher, 2010
Progress testing offers a unique contribution to medical education assessment in that it provides a tool for monitoring examinees' growth over time and their progress toward graduation objectives. However, one of the most important psychometric requirements of progress testing has typically been neglected in past applications: scores across the time ...

NONLINEAR EVOLUTION EQUATIONS AND THE PAINLEVÉ TEST

International Journal of Modern Physics A, 1992
A survey is given of new results of the Painlevé test and nonlinear evolution equations where ordinary- and partial-differential equations are considered. We study the semiclassical Jaynes-Cumming model, the energy-eigenvalue-level-motion equation, the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation, the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation and the self-dual Yang-Mills ...

Equating and equivalence of tests

1995
A test form serves its purpose of assessing an individual’s skill, ability, or knowledge of a well-defined domain only if the test scores satisfy a number of conditions. First, the test scores have to be strongly associated (highly correlated) with the measured trait. This trait is an inherently unobservable quantity.

Equating an adaptive test to a linear test

2005
Two new methods for the equating of an adaptive test to a linear test are presented. The methods are based on the conditional distributions of the observed scores on the two tests, given the examinee’s ability. They are motivated by the fact that conditioning on the examinee’s ability is necessary to allow for differences between observed-score ...

Test in a Structural Equation.

Econometrica, 1989
Properties of t ratios associated with the limited information maximum likelihood, two-stage least squares, and ordinary least squares estimators in a structural form estimation are studied. The existence of moments of these t ratios, including the limited information maximum likelihood form, is proved first.

On chains of word equations and test sets

Bull. EATCS, 1999
Summary: Ehrenfeucht's conjecture is equivalent with the ascending chain condition for word equations. A related conjecture concerns the descending chain condition for word equations. We show that if this conjecture holds then an arbitrary infinite language \(L\) possesses a finite subset \(F\) such that the language \(L-F\) is a disjoint union of its ...
