Abstract
This report is the Proceedings of the 1977 Computerized Adaptive Testing Conference held July 19-22, 1977, at the University of Minnesota. These Proceedings include 27 papers (26 of which were presented at the Conference); discussions of these papers by Darrell Bock, Frederic Lord, Nancy Cole, Ernst Rothkopf, Richard Ferguson, and David Weiss; and a panel discussion entitled 'Future Directions for Computerized Adaptive Testing,' with presentations by Frederic Lord, Mark Reckase, Fumiko Samejima, Vern Urry, and David Weiss. The papers are organized into the following topical sessions: (1) Improving Ability Measurement Using Different Item Formats; (2) Alternative Models for Adaptive Testing; (3) Psychological and Subgroup Effects; (4) Performance Testing by Interactive Simulation; (5) Implementations of Adaptive Testing; (6) Achievement/Performance Testing Viewed as a Classification Problem; (7) Achievement Testing Viewed as a Trait Measurement Problem; and (8) Computer-Based Testing as an Alternative to Paper-and-Pencil Testing.
