Using Item Scores and Response Times to Detect Item Compromise in Computerized Adaptive Testing.
Article in Educational and psychological measurement, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Sequential procedures have been shown to be effective methods for real-time detection of compromised items in computerized adaptive testing. In this study, we propose three item response theory-based sequential procedures that involve the use of item scores and response times (RTs). The first procedure requires that either the score-based statistic or the RT-based statistic be extreme, the second procedure requires that both the score-based statistic and the RT-based statistic be extreme, and the third procedure requires that a combined score and RT-based statistic be extreme. Results suggest that the third procedure is the most promising, providing a reasonable balance between the false-positive rate and the true-positive rate while also producing relatively short lag times across a wide range of simulation conditions.
