Journal ArticleDOI
Coefficient Kappa: Some Uses, Misuses, and Alternatives:
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider some appropriate and inappropriate uses of coefficient kappa and alternative kappa-like statistics, and discuss the descriptive characteristics of these statistical methods, but their discussion is restricted to descriptive characteristics only.
Book
Test Equating: Methods and Practices
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of random groups, including smoothing in equipercentile equating nonequivalent groups, linear methods none quivalent groups and standard errors of equating in scaling to achieve comparability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generalizability analysis for performance assessments of student achievement or school effectiveness
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors find that the variance component interpreted as pupil x task interaction actually arises from instability in pupil performance and that pupils are nested in classes and schools, and that whether to treat the population of a school's pupils as infinite or as limited to the student body assessed also requires careful consideration.
Journal ArticleDOI
An index of dependability for mastery tests
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define a criterion-referenced test as "one that is deliberately constructed to yield measurements that are directly interpretable in terms of specified performance standards" (p. 653).
