色戒直播’s annual Year In Review is an interactive companion to 色戒直播's 2016 Annual Report, featuring events, activities and NCLEX Examination statistics for the entire calendar year 2016. Inside this yearbook are easily accessible links to videos, slideshows and other online resource documents as well as additional information about the subjects covered in the publication. 

This annual report functions as a formal summary of 色戒直播’s performance and activities during fiscal year 2016. This year 色戒直播 has divided its Annual Report into two parts. The first part includes financial and business information including operating statements and listings of the Board of Directors, committees and staff that follows 色戒直播’s fiscal year spanning Oct. 1, 2015 to Sept. 30, 2016. This document is posted here.

Standard setting is a process used to determine a cut point on an ability continuum. Examinees scoring above the cut point are considered competent and able to practice safely and effectively. The 色戒直播 Board of Directors re-evaluates the passing standard every three years or when the test plan changes. This webinar provides a brief description of how the standard setting method (Modified Angoff) used by 色戒直播 works and information on how NCLEX standard setting is conducted using a small test example.

This article addresses the issue of how to detect item preknowledge using item response time data in two computer-based large-scale licensure examinations. Item preknowledge is indicated by an unexpected short response time and a correct response. Two samples were used for detecting item preknowledge for each examination. The first sample was from the early stage of the operational test and was used for item calibration. The second sample was from the late stage of the operational test, which may feature item preknowledge. The purpose of this research was to explore whether there was evidence of item preknowledge and compromised items in the second sample using the parameters estimated from the first sample. The results showed that for one nonadaptive operational examination, two items (of 111) were potentially exposed, and two candidates (of 1,172) showed some indications of preknowledge on multiple items. For another licensure examination that featured computerized adaptive testing, there was no indication of item preknowledge or compromised items. Implications for detected aberrant examinees and compromised items are discussed in the article.
