PARALLEL TEST FORM DEVELOPMENT: A PROCEDURE FOR ALTERNATE PREDICTORS AND AN EXAMPLE
描述了一种开发平行测试形式的程序，确保不同形式的分数在均值、标准差和因子结构上相似，并应用于生物数据清单和情境判断测试，发现需要在项目层面构建平行形式。
A procedure for developing alternate test forms that are parallel in the sense that scores on the different forms have similar means, standard deviations, and factor structures is described and applied to a bio‐data inventory and a situational judgment test. Careful consideration of item‐by‐item parallelism during development resulted in alternate forms that were parallel at the item level. Further, comparison with a biodata test form comprised of items randomly selected from a pool of biodata items revealed that for the types of measures described here it may be necessary to produce parallel forms of each item to create alternate forms that are parallel in the way in which Cronbach (1947) originally defined parallelism.
