You can also control the range of acceptable item statistics, such as classical difficulty values between 0.50 and 0.90; only items that meet your specifications will be available for selection.
2. New Form Specifications – Specify the number of forms, number of items on each form, then number of content areas, the number of items in each content area, and the psychometric target for the final forms
3. Anchor Items – Specify the percentage of the total form to be an internal anchor block, as well as its statistical characteristics
Then click “Run” and your new forms are created in just a few seconds!
