Abstract
The objective of the study was to investigate the correlation between ability estimation of examinees from computerized adaptive testing using the next item selection procedure using maximum information criterion and total score of examinees from computerized testing for english test in undergraduate study skills. this study was tested and developed in web application form, the examinees can choose 2 types of the test from computerized adaptive testing and computerized testing. the sample of examinees was divided with 2 groups and 15 people in each group, the first group started with computerized testing (CT) and computerized adaptive testing (CAT-MIC) respectively, the second group started with computerized adaptive testing and computerized testing respectively, this process was used for avoid order effect which affect to testing. the results were used for data analysis using descriptive statistics such as frequency, max, min, mean, standard deviation and pearson’s product moment correlation. The finding indicated that ability estimation of examinees from computerized adaptive testing and total score of examinees from computerized testing were at 0.837 high positive correlation and statistically significant at 0.01 level. the results form CAT-MIC conformed to CT therefore ability estimation of examinees from CAT was high (or low) and total score from CT was also high (or low).
