== Item selection ==
In a CCT, items are selected for administration throughout the test, unlike the traditional method of administering a fixed set of items to all examinees. While this is usually done by individual item, it can also be done in groups of items known as [[testlet]]s (Leucht & Nungester, 1996;<ref>Luecht, R. M., & Nungester, R. J. (1998). Some practical examples of computer-adaptive sequential testing. Journal of Educational Measurement, 35, 229-249.</ref> Vos & Glas, 2000<ref >Vos, H.J. & Glas, C.A.W. (2000).
