New Tool for Determing Test Equivalence

Assessment Systems Corporation offers a number of very useful tools for the employment test developer. They have introduced a new program for establishing equivalent forms based on IRT theory. ASC released its new IRT Form Building Tool this week. The Form Building Tool is a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet designed to aid in the assembly of test with IRT. It handles up to four forms simultaneously, and produces IRT figures and tables including the response functions and information functions for items, test forms, and the entire bank. To learn more or download the manual for evaluation, visit the website at http://www.assess.com/xcart/product.php?productid=519.
