Although computer-based tests (CBT) have been administered for many
years, improvements in the speed and power of computers coupled
with reductions in their cost have made large-scale computer
delivery of tests increasingly feasible. CBT is now a common form
of test delivery for licensure, certification, and admissions
tests. Many large-scale, high-stakes testing programs have
introduced CBT either as an option or as the sole means of test
delivery. Although this movement to CBT has, to a great extent,
been successful, it has not been without problems. Advances in
psychometrics are required to ensure that those who rely on test
results can have at least the same confidence in CBTs as they have
in traditional forms of assessment.
This volume stems from an ETS-sponsored colloquium in which more
than 200 measurement professionals from eight countries and 29
states convened to assess the current and future status of CBT. The
formal agenda for the colloquium was divided into three major
segments: Test Models, Test Administration, and Test Analysis and
Scoring. Each segment consisted of several presentations followed
by comments from noted psychometricians and a break-out session in
which presenters and discussants identified important issues and
established priorities for a CBT research agenda. This volume
contains the papers presented at the colloquium, the discussant
remarks based on those papers, and the research agenda that was
generated from the break-out sessions.
"Computer-Based Testing: Building the Foundation for Future
Assessments" is must reading for professionals, scholars, and
advanced students working in the testing field, as well as people
in the information technology field who have an interest in
testing.
