Researchers have developed a new framework called AISA, which utilizes Large Language Models (LLMs) to analyze incidental content similarity in large-scale assessments. This dual-dimensional approach, operationalizing similarity through structured decomposition and semantic relatedness, aims to address the limitations of traditional metrics like BLEU and cosine similarity in capturing nuanced redundancy. Psychometric validation suggests that AISA's LLM-derived metrics better align with construct-irrelevant local dependence and improve item parameter groupings. The framework's application in Computerized Adaptive Testing (CAT) simulations demonstrated enhanced estimation stability and reduced bias in item selection compared to conventional methods. AI
