This study presents a methodology for efficiently generating and selecting high-quality, non-redundant items for psychological assessments using LLMs and network psychometrics. Our approach, termed Automatic Item Generation and Validation with Network-Integrated Evaluation (AI-GENIE), reduces reliance on expert intervention by integrating generative AI with the latest network psychometric techniques. The efficacy of AI-GENIE was evaluated through Monte Carlo simulations using the Mixtral, Gemma 2, Llama 3, GPT-3.5, and GPT-4o models to generate item pools that mimic Big Five personality assessments. Additionally, items from AI-GENIE were empirically tested with five nationally representative U.S. samples (\n                    <jats:inline-formula>\n                      <jats:alternatives>\n                        <jats:tex-math>$$N = 4{,}964$$<\/jats:tex-math>\n                        <mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\">\n                          <mml:mrow>\n                            <mml:mi>N<\/mml:mi>\n                            <mml:mo>=<\/mml:mo>\n                            <mml:mn>4<\/mml:mn>\n                            <mml:mo>,<\/mml:mo>\n                            <mml:mn>964<\/mml:mn>\n                          <\/mml:mrow>\n                        <\/mml:math>\n                      <\/jats:alternatives>\n                    <\/jats:inline-formula>\n                    total), demonstrating that AI-GENIE-generated scales achieve structural validity\u2014that is, evidence based on internal structure (dimensionality and item stability)\u2014comparable to traditional expert-developed measures. The results demonstrated improvements in item selection efficiency, with overall average increases of 8.68\u201320.03 in normalized mutual information in the final item pool across all models. We also present a simulation study on the emerging construct of AI anxiety to demonstrate AI-GENIE\u2019s utility for underrepresented constructs. Results from newly released models (DeepSeek, GPT-OSS 20B, GPT-OSS 120B) are presented in the Appendix.
