| Abstract: | For the measurement of multiple traits, this paper proposes
assembling tests based on the targets for the (asymptotic)
variance functions of the estimators of each of
the traits. A linear programming model is presented that
can be used to computerize the assembly process. Several
cases of test assembly dealing with multidimensional
traits are distinguished, and versions of the model applicable
to each of these cases are discussed. An empirical
example of a test assembly problem from a two-dimensional
mathematics item pool is provided. Index terms:
asymptotic variance functions, linear programming, multidimensional
IRT, test assembly, test design. |
