Drawing on the work of internationally acclaimed experts in the
field, Handbook of Item Response Theory, Volume 3: Applications
presents applications of item response theory to practical testing
problems. While item response theory may be known primarily for its
advances in theoretical modeling of responses to test items, equal
progress has been made in its providing innovative solutions to
daily testing problems. This third volume in a three-volume set
highlights the major applications. Specifically, this volume covers
applications to test item calibration, item analysis, model fit
checking, test-score interpretation, optimal test design, adaptive
testing, standard setting, and forensic analyses of response data.
It describes advances in testing in areas such as large-scale
educational assessment, psychological testing, health measurement,
and measurement of change. In addition, it extensively reviews
computer programs available to run any of the models and
applications in Volume One and Three. Features Includes
contributions from internationally acclaimed experts with a history
of advancing applications of item response theory Provides
extensive cross-referencing and common notation across all chapters
in this three-volume set Underscores the importance of treating
each application in a statistically rigorous way Reviews major
computer programs for item response theory analyses and
applications. Wim J. van der Linden is a distinguished scientist
and director of research and innovation at Pacific Metrics
Corporation. Dr. van der Linden is also a professor emeritus of
measurement and data analysis at the University of Twente. His
research interests include test theory, adaptive testing, optimal
test assembly, parameter linking, test equating, and response-time
modeling as well as decision theory and its applications to
problems of educational decision making.
