In this study some alternative item selection criteria for adaptive testing are proposed. These criteria take into account the uncertainty of the ability estimates. A general weighted information criterion of which the usual maximum information criterion and the proposed alternative criteria are special cases is suggested. A small simulation study was conducted to compare the different criteria. The results showed that the likelihood weighted information criterion is a good alternative to the maximum information criterion. Another good alternative is a maximum information criterion with the maximum likelihood estimator of ability replaced by the Bayesian expected a posteriori estimator.
