Are there any commercial software available for multidimensional adaptive testing (which include calibration of items, ability estimation and next item selection procedures) ? If yes which are they?
ConQuest does the item calibration and ability estimation but not next item selection. Irshad, you will probably have to develop your own item-administration algorithm.
A thought: why not test one dimension separately by selecting only items that load heavily onto that one dimension? Then the item-selection algorithm can advance automatically to the next dimension ...
Currently, I am not aware of a single commercial software for both, MIRT scaling and operational multidimensional adaptive testing.
Some commercial products for MIRT scaling have been mentioned above (e.g., ConQust).
To my knowledge, no commercial software exists for multidimensional adaptive testing. The Multidimensional Adaptive Testing Environment (MATE) can be used for teaching and research purposes:
