1. Test Design for Mean Ability Growth and Optimal Item Calibration for Achievement Tests
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we examine two topics in the area of educational measurement. The first topic studies how to best design two achievement tests with common items such that a population mean-ability growth is measured as precisely as possible. The second examines how to calibrate newly developed test items optimally. LÄS MER
2. Optimal design for dose-finding studies
Sammanfattning : One of the most complex tasks during the clinical development of a new drug is to find a correct dose. Optimal experimental design has as a goal to find the best ways to perform an experiment considering the available resources and the statistical model. Optimal designs have already been used to determine the design of dose-finding studies. LÄS MER
3. Achievement tests and optimal design for pretesting of questions
Sammanfattning : Achievement tests are used to measure the students' proficiency in a particular knowledge. Computerized achievement tests (e.g. GRE and SAT) are usually based on questions available in an item bank to measure the proficiency of students. LÄS MER
