A Note on the Length and Passing Score of a Mastery Test
Rand R. Wilcox · Journal of Educational Statistics · 1976
Using an indifference zone formulation, Fhanér has described a ranking and selection procedure for determining the appropriate length of a mastery test. The purpose of this note is to relate Fhanér’s solution to one given by Millman, to give a criterion for the choice of a passing score, and to describe a search routine which will always yield the appropriate test length and implied passing score.
