The present study investigates the phenomena of simultaneous DIF amplificationand cancellation and SIBTEST's role in detecting such. A variety of simulated test data were generated for this purpose. In addition, real test data from various sources were used. The results from both simulated as well as real test data, as Shealy and Stout's theory suggests, show that the SIBTEST is effective in assessing the DIF amplification and cancellation (partially or fully) at the test score level. Finally, methodological and substantive implications of DIF amplification and cancellation are discussed. SIBTEST, DIF, Item bias, Test bias, Bias amplification, Bias cancellation.

This Validation Summary Report (VSR) describes the extent to which a specific Ada compiler conforms to the Ada Standard, ANSI/MIL-STD-1815A. This report explains all technical terms used within it and thoroughly reports the results of testing this compiler using the Ada Compiler Validation Capability (ACVC). An Ada compiler must be implemented according to the Ada Standard, and any implementation-dependent features must conform to the requirements of the Ada Standard. The Ada Standard must be implemented in its entirety, and nothing can be implemented that is not in the Standard. Even though all validated Ada compilers conform to the Standard, it must be understood that some differences do exist between implementations. The Ada Standard permits some implementation dependencies -- for example, the maximum length of identifiers or the maximum values of integer types. Other differences between compilers result from characteristics of particular operating systems, hardware, or implementation strategies. All of the dependencies observed during the process of testing this compiler are given in this report. The information in this report is derived from the test results produced during validation testing.

Standard procedures for equating tests, including those based on item responsetheory (IRT), require item responses from large numbers of examinees. Such data may not be forthcoming for reasons theoretical, political, or practical. Information about items' operating characteristics may be available from other sources, however such as content and format skills and strategies required to solve them. This paper shows how, in the IRT framework, collateral information about items can be exploited to augment or even replace examinee responses when linking or equating new tests to established scales. The procedures are illustrated with data from the Pre Professional Skills Test(PPST).
