Veldkamp, Bernard P.; Verschoor, Angela J.; Eggen, Theo J. H. M. – Psicologica: International Journal of Methodology and Experimental Psychology, 2010
Overexposure and underexposure of items in the bank are serious problems in operational computerized adaptive testing (CAT) systems. These exposure problems might result in item compromise, or point at a waste of investments. The exposure control problem can be viewed as a test assembly problem with multiple objectives. Information in the test has…

The authors aimed to examine the information that each of the ICG-R items contributes to the measurement of overall CG…

van der Linden, Wim J. – 1985
This paper reviews recent research in the Netherlands on the application of decision theory to test-based decision making about personnel selection and student placement. The review is based on an earlier model proposed for the classification of decision problems, and emphasizes an empirical Bayesian framework. Classification decisions with…

Wijnstra, Johan M.; Eggen, Theo J. H. M. – 1987
The operational preparations for the Dutch national assessment program in education started in 1986. The program's aim is to periodically describe the contents of the curriculum in use and the attainment of 8-year-old and 11-year-old students on a national basis by means of surveys. In this paper some of the guiding principles in instrument…
