This paper proposes a novel NLP-based approach to support subject matter experts in establishing a crosswalk between item specifications and content standards. Building on recent work, the authors introduce multivariate similarity based on embedding vectors for sentences or texts. The hybrid regression procedure is demonstrated for matching each content standard to multiple item specifications. Specifically, the approach is applied to evaluate the match of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for mathematics at grade 4 to the corresponding item specifications for the 2026 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP).
