Outline of Final Research Achievements

To administrate computerized adaptive testing (CAT), test administrators need to develop testing system. This causes a barrier to utilize CAT in educational or clinical psychology field. Therefore we developed general purpose computerized adaptive testing system for tablet device. Teachers and researchers have not administrated CAT easily before. However this system is possible to carry out CAT using tablet device.
