About the Author

André A. Rupp is a research director at the Educational Testing Service(ETS) in Princeton, NJ, USA where his team conducts rigorous empirical research using cognitive, psychometric, and validation perspectives to develop best methodological practices for scoring constructed responses and extended performances. His personal research has focused on applications of principled assessment design frameworks in innovative assessment contexts as well as translating the statistical complexities of diagnostic measurement models into practical guidelines for applied specialists to help shape best methodological practices. Other notable work includes the book Diagnostic Measurement: Theory, Methods, and Applications (2010), which won the 2012 Outstanding Contribution to Educational Research Methodology Award from AERA Division D. He is currently the editor of the ITEMS educational module series within Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice and NCME (2016-2019).
