Abstract
AbstractAn extremely efficient MCMC method for Bayesian adaptive testing with polytomous items is explained both conceptually and in mathematical detail. Results from extensive simulation studies with different item pools, polytomous response models, calibration sample sizes, and test lengths are presented. In addition, the case of adaptive testing from pools with a mixture of dichotomous and polytomous items is addressed.
