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.
