Applied Measurement Education: Volume 36, Issue 4, Pages 326-339

 

This study examines strategies for detecting parameter drift in small-sample equating, crucial for maintaining score comparability in high-stakes exams. Results suggest that methods like mINFIT, mOUTFIT, and Robust-z effectively mitigate drifting anchor items' effects, while caution is advised with the Logit Difference approach. Recommendations are provided for practitioners to manage item parameter drift in small-sample settings.
