Scientific Work

The beginning of Klaus Kubinger's carrier was characterized by applications of the Rasch model ( Item response theory) on pertinent psychological tests . [1] Then he developed some non-parametric discriminant analysis [2] and an analysis of variance for a two-way layout for rank scaled data . [3] Later on the intelligence test-battery AID [4] and AID 2 [5] , [6] respectively, have been established, which is based on (branched-) adaptive testing. There have also been developed several objective personality tests sensu R.B. Cattell . [7] Nowadays his research work focuses on fundamental research of assessment processes (fakability of personality questionnaires, [8] guessing effects in multiple choice tests [9] , [10] equivalency of computerized or in other cultures transposed tests [5]) and on the advancement of Item response theory models [11] [12] [13] .
