All criteria will be reset to their default values.
Provide the exam name (e.g., credential and build year/quarter) and the number of forms you’d like to assemble.
Enter the number of operational and pretest items for each type. If you enter zero, that item type will be excluded from the form.
Check ‘Best Possible’ to let the system choose the number of items automatically.
Select ‘Use Stats’ if you want the item's statistics included in p-value and rBIS calculations.

If using Classical Test Theory (CTT), please enter the target P value (difficulty, ranges from 0.0 to 1.0) and r-biserial value (discrimination, ranges from 0 to +1.0) required for your forms. This should match the values of the form to which you are equating or the values provided by your psychometrician.
If using Item-Response Theory (IRT), please enter your theta target.

Form Overlap: Specify the minimum and maximum count of items that can overlap across forms.
Balance Test Time: Balance test time across all forms. Items without an associated time will have their time defaulted to zero.
Minimize Item Exposure: Minimize the exposure counts in each form.
Max. Exposures: The maximum number of exposures permitted for an item to be included in a form.
Similarity Cutoff: The minimum similarity score between two items for them to be considered enemies. Typically, values between 70-80 allow organizations to identify enemies with limited false positives.
