TAILOR-APL: An Interactive Computer Program for Individual Tailored Testing.

Abstract

A computer program for administering individual tailored tests was evaluated with 50 examinees and compared with a complete test on the criterion of odd-even reliability. Although the tailored tests presented only 0.44 as many of the items as the complete tests, the reliability of the scores was 0.83 compared to a complete test reliability of 0.78. In addition, these results were obtained without pretesting of items. (Author)
