A Comparison of a Maximum Likelihood and a Bayesian Ability Estimation Procedure for Tailored Testing [electronic resource] / Martin A. Rosso and Mark D. Reckase.

The overall purpose of this research was to compare a maximum likelihood based tailored testing procedure to a Bayesian tailored testing procedure. The results indicated that both tailored testing procedures produced equally reliable ability estimates. Also an analysis of test length indicated that...
