Abstract | Research on equating with small samples has shown that methods with stronger assumptions and fewer statistical estimates can lead to decreased error in the estimated equating function. This article introduces a new approach to linear observed-score equating, one which provides flexible control over how form difficulty is assumed versus estimated to change across the score scale. A general linear method is presented as an extension of traditional linear methods. The general method is then compared to other linear and nonlinear methods in terms of accuracy in estimating a criterion equating function. Results from two parametric bootstrapping studies based on real data demonstrate the usefulness of the general linear method. (As Provided). |
