Item validation provides concrete documentation of the relevance of all items on the exam form; it provides documentation that a panel of subject matter experts convened, discussed the relevance of every item, and agreed on each item to be placed on the exam form. Another use of the validation process is in the assembly of the exam form. If the experts developed more items for a blueprint area than necessary, it is important to quantify the quality of an items to allow selection of only the best items.
