    Moreover, a nurse subject to disciplinary action may be able to assert the equitable defense of latches. This defense does not arise from the mere passage of time between the occurrence of the underlying events giving rise to a disciplinary complaint and a board’s action. Rather, the nurse would have to establish that there is unreasonable prejudice to the nurse’s ability to mount a defense, unrelated to the merits of the charge, resulting from the Board’s undue delay in prosecuting the disciplinary action.

  • Using Response Time to Detect Item Preknowledge in Computer-Based Licensure Examinations | NCSBN

    The National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) is a not-for-profit organization whose purpose is to provide an organization through which boards of nursing act and counsel together on matters of common interest and concern affecting the public health, safety and welfare, including the development of licensing examinations in nursing. The first sample was from the early stage of the operational test and was used for item calibration. The second sample was from the late stage of the operational test, which may feature item preknowledge. The purpose of this research was to explore whether there was evidence of item preknowledge and compromised items in the second sample using the parameters estimated from the first sample. The results showed that for one nonadaptive operational examination, two items (of 111) were potentially exposed, and two candidates (of 1,172) showed some indications of preknowledge on multiple items.
