Implied orders tailored testing: Simulation with the Stanford-Binet.

Tailoring eliminated approximately half the responses with only modest decreases in score reliability. Responses in tailored tests were shown by the Spearman- Brown prophecy formula to be equivalent to from 1.09 to 1.48 conventional items. Ninety-five percent of all responses implied by the tailoring procedures were identical to responses actually obtained during live testing.enArticle
