Product Description:

This study introduces an enhanced Psychometric Item Generator framework using large language models to automate psychological test development. Through three distinct trials, models generated high-quality items for AI trust, anxiety, and adoption scales. A validation trial involving human participants confirmed strong linguistic clarity, internal consistency, and clear factor structure. The method provides an accessible, cost-effective tool, though human oversight remains essential.
