Abstract

A network-flow model is formulated for constructing parallel tests based on classical test theory using test reliability for the criterion. The model enables practitioners to specify a test difficulty distribution for the values of the item difficulties as well as test composition requirements. Use of the network-flow algorithm ensures high computational efficiency, allowing wide applications of optimal test construction using microcomputers. The results of an empirical study show that the generated tests have acceptably high test reliability.
