Asymptotic Standard Errors of Parameter Scale Transformation Coefficients in Test Equating Under the Nominal Response
1The University of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
Abstract:
Researchers have developed a characteristic curve procedure to estimate the parameter scale transformation coefficients in test equating under the nominal response model. In the study, the delta method was applied to derive the standard error expressions for computing the standard errors for the estimates of the parameter scale transformation coefficients. This brief report presents the results of a simulation study that examined the accuracy of the derived formulas and compared the performance of this analytical method with that of the multiple imputation method. The results indicated that the standard errors produced by the delta method were very close to the criterion standard errors as well as those yielded by the multiple imputation method under all the simulation conditions.

Testing a Claim about Standard Deviation
The hypothesis testing for the claim of population standard deviation (or variance) requires the data and samples to be random and unbiased. The population distribution also must be normal. There is no specific requirement on the sample size as the estimation is based on the chi-square distribution.
As a first step, the hypothesis (null and alternative) concerning the claim about...

Different sample means can result in different values for the variance estimate: variance between samples. This is because the variance between samples is calculated as the product of the sample size and the variance between the...
