Myths and paradoxes of classical test theory (II): About item-scale correlations, reliability, and validityAbstract. It is often suggested to assemble tests of items with high item-scale correlations. Indeed, item-scale correlations are excellent ...
IRES-24 patient questionnaire: Development of the short form of an assessment instrument in rehabilitation by means Mixed-Rasch analysisAbstract. The IRES-Questionnaire (Indicators of the Rehabilitation Status) is one of the most frequently used ...
Zusammenfassung. Die vorliegende Untersuchung beschäftigt sich mit den psychometrischen Eigenschaften des Intelligenz-Struktur-Tests 2000 R (Amthauer, Brocke, Liepmann & Beauducel, 2001) in der Kurzform A. Es wurden Analysen zur Rasch-Skalierbarkeit, zur ...
A Comparison of Traditional and Computer-Assisted Methods for the Development of a German Need for Cognition Short ScaleAbstract. The current study presents the development and validation of a Need for Cognition (NFC) short scale. In Study 1 (N = 282), ...

Especially in survey research and large-scale assessment there is a growing interest in short scales for the cost-efficient measurement of psychological constructs. However, only relatively few standardized short forms are available for the measurement of ...
Short scales have become widely used in settings in which participant time is limited and when assessment would otherwise be impossible. Based on simulated data on the population level we investigate whether scale shortening affects the desired invariance ...
The item selection rule (ISR) most commonly used in computerized adaptive testing (CAT) is to select the item with maximum Fisher information for the current trait estimation (PFI). Several alternative ISRs have been proposed. Among them, Fisher ...
Abstract. In the construction of scales intended for the use in cross-cultural studies, the selection of items needs to be guided not only by traditional criteria of item quality, but has to take information about the measurement ...
In the present study we investigated the effect of repeated testing on item selection, retention, and delayed relearning of paired associates. Participants learned both related (easy) and unrelated (difficult) word pairs under conditions of repeated study ...
