Scoring the Outcomes of 1-3-3 Multistage Model of Computerised Adaptive Testing

The given paper discusses an original method of the evaluation of outcomes of adaptive testing in the case of the strategy of the multilevel testing. The multiplicity/set of the outcomes of testing consists of atypical different-dimensional elements. The given paper defines the criteria of their comparison, describes the principles of ordering of the given multiplicity and draws the getting of a final score. The paper presented considers the ordering method of outcome set for multi-stage testing (MST) of 1-3-3 model. The ordering method of outcome set is used for the estimation of results of computerized adaptive testing (CAT). This method is not tied to a specific testing procedure. Acknowledgment of this is its usage for the 1-3-3 model, which is described in the paper. To sort the set of testing outcomes the function-criteria described in the initial article are used here and a comparative analysis of obtained results is performed. The criterion of ordering of the outcomes of testing may not be the only option. The given paper illustrates this fact through a comparative discussion of two samples. An original procedure of testing is used for the presentation of the essence of the method. The given procedure is aimed to be illustrative, because a described method of assessment can be used for similar strategies. The ordered outcome set is estimated by a hundred-point system according to the normal distribution.
