Data Driven Direct Consensus (3DC)
The Data Driven Direct Consensus procedure (3DC) is a new and very flexible method for standard setting. As the name implies, it borrows considerably from the Direct Consensus procedure but it adds psychometrical rigour and guidance for the panellists by providing extra information about the relative difficulty of the clusters in relation to each other and to the test score.
