A Compensatory Approach to Optimal Selection with Mastery Scores.

van der Linden, Wim J.; Vos, Hans J.

Psychometrika, v61 n1 p155-72 Mar 1996

A Bayesian approach for simultaneous optimization of test-based decisions is presented using the example of a selection decision for a treatment followed by a mastery decision. A distinction is made between weak and strong rules, and conditions for monotonicity of optimal weak and strong rules are presented. (Author/SLD)
