Abstract:Classical automated test assembly (ATA) methods assume fixed and known coefficients for the constraints and the objective function. This hypothesis is not true for the estimates of item response theory parameters, which are crucial elements in test assembly classical models. To account for uncertainty in ATA, we propose a chance-constrained version of the maximin ATA model, which allows maximizing the α-quantile of the sampling distribution of the test information function obtained by applying the bootstrap on… Show more
