Note. Simulations for classifications with UIRT and MIRT with a flexible test length. SPRT = sequential probability ratio test; UCCT = unidimensional computerized classification testing; MCCT = multidimensional computerized classification testing; MIRT = multidimensional item response theory; UIRT = unidimensional item response theory; = acceptable error rates; = percentile point that was used to calculate the boundary of the indifference region.
