Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice

This article aims to answer the question: when the assumption that examinees may apply themselves fully yet still respond incorrectly is violated, what are the consequences of using the modified model proposed by Lewis and his colleagues? 

Integrating Timing Considerations to Improve Testing Practices

This chapter addresses timing considerations in the context of other types of performance assessments and reports on a previously unpublished experiment examining timing with respect to performance on computer-based case simulations that are used in physician licensure.

This article presents two generalizability-theory–based analyses of the proportion of the item variance that contributes to error in the cut score. For one approach, variance components are estimated on the probability (or proportion-correct) scale of the Angoff judgments, and for the other, the judgments are transferred to the theta scale of an item response theory model before estimating the variance components.
