There has been an increase in awareness (and perhaps occurrence) of
individual and organized cheating on tests. Recent reports of
widespread problems with state student accountability tests and
teacher certification testing have raised questions about the very
validity of assessment programs. While there are several books that
specifically detail the issues of test security cheating on
assessments, few outline the statistical procedures used for
detecting various types of potential test fraud and the associated
research findings. Without a significant research literature base,
the new generation of researchers will have little opportunity or
incentive to improve on existing methods. Enlisting a variety of
experts and scholars in different fields of testing, this edited
volume expands on the current literature base by including examples
of detailed research findings arrived at by statistical
methodology. It also provides a synthesis of the current state of
the art with regard to the statistical detection of testing
infidelity, particularly for large-scale assessments. By presenting
methods currently used by testing organizations and research on new
methods, the volume offers an important forum for expanding the
literature in this area.
