André A. Rupp is Research Director at Educational Testing Service (ETS) in Princeton, NJ, where he works with teams that conduct comprehensive evaluation work for mature and emerging automated scoring systems. His 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. Through dissemination and professional development efforts he is deeply dedicated to helping interdisciplinary teams navigate the complicated trade-offs between scientific, educational, political, and financial drivers of decision-making in order to help shape best methodological practices for evidentiary reasoning for complex assessment design and deployment lifecycles. He is co-author of Diagnostic Measurement: Theory, Methods, and Applications (2010).
