Evaluating the Effect of Bootstrap-Resampling in Enhancing the Norming Accuracy

• In Event: Electronic Board Session III

Abstract

Norm-referenced tests rely on precise normed scores to measure an examinee’s relative standing, potentially impacting major life decisions. This study investigates bootstrap-resampling technique to enhance the accuracy of reference ability scores, a type of normed scores, when paired with different norming methods under a set of simulation conditions.
