To study the weighting effects on linking, we first selected multiple subsamples from a data set. We then compared the linking parameters from subsamples with those from the data and examined whether the linking parameters from the weighted sample yielded smaller mean square errors (MSE) than those from the unweighted subsample. To study the weighting effects on true-score equating, we also compared the distributions of the equated scores. Generally, the findings were that the weighting produced good results.
