Examining Long-Term Dynamics in Multistage Adaptive Testing

• In Event: Electronic Board Session II

Abstract

This study explores the impact of accumulated linking error, particularly on the final scores obtained through a long-term linking chain established during field-testing. A series of simulations were conducted to investigate the long-term impact of the linkage plan, calibration method, field-test sample distribution, and population shifts on the MST scores.
