Computerized adaptive testing (CAT) presents a tradeoff problem involving increasing measurement accuracy vs. decreasing item exposure in an item pool. To address this difficulty, we propose two-stage uniform adaptive testing. In the first stage, the proposed method partitions an item pool into numerous uniform item groups using a state-of-the-art uniform test assembly technique based on the Random Integer Programming Maximum Clique Problem. Then the method selects the optimum item from a uniform item group. In the second stage, when the standard error of an examinee’s ability estimate becomes less than a certain value, it switches to selecting and to presenting an optimum item from the whole item pool. Results of numerical experiments underscore the effectiveness of the proposed method.
