摘要

计算机化自适应测试(CAT)在教育和专业评估中得到了应有的普及,但仍然面临着测试安全方面的挑战。为了确保持续的质量保证和测试的完整性,必须建立和维护多个稳定的项目库,这些项目库在心理测量特征和内容规范方面必须保持一致。本研究介绍了蜂巢题库组装(HPA)框架,这是一种创新的解决方案,用于为计算机辅助测试(CAT)构建多个并行题库,最大限度地提高题库中题目的利用率。HPA 框架包括两个阶段--单元组装和题库组装--并采用混合整数编程建模方法。一项实证研究表明,HPA 在使用真实世界的高风险 CAT 评估项目库创建大量并行项目库方面非常有效。HPA 框架具有多种优势,包括:(a)同时创建多个并行题库;(b)简化题库维护;(c)灵活建立统计和操作约束。此外,它还能帮助测试机构有效地管理和监控其项目库的健康状况。因此,HPA 框架有望成为测试专业人员和机构应对测试安全挑战和维护高风险计算机辅助测试评估完整性的宝贵工具。

An Automated Item Pool Assembly Framework for Maximizing Item Utilization for CAT

Computerized adaptive testing (CAT) has gained deserved popularity in the administration of educational and professional assessments, but continues to face test security challenges. To ensure sustained quality assurance and testing integrity, it is imperative to establish and maintain multiple stable item pools that are consistent in terms of psychometric characteristics and content specifications. This study introduces the Honeycomb Pool Assembly (HPA) framework, an innovative solution for the construction of multiple parallel item pools for CAT that maximizes item utilization in the item bank. The HPA framework comprises two stages—cell assembly and pool assembly—and uses a mixed integer programming modeling approach. An empirical study demonstrated HPA's effectiveness in creating a large number of parallel pools using a real-world high-stakes CAT assessment item bank. The HPA framework offers several advantages, including (a) simultaneous creation of multiple parallel pools, (b) simplification of item pool maintenance, and (c) flexibility in establishing statistical and operational constraints. Moreover, it can help testing organizations efficiently manage and monitor the health of their item banks. Thus, the HPA framework is expected to be a valuable tool for testing professionals and organizations to address test security challenges and maintain the integrity of high-stakes CAT assessments.
