The Golden Rule Bias Reduction Principle: A Practical Reform.
Weiss, John
Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, v6 n2 p23-25 Sum 1987

The Golden Rule reform is a safeguard to ensure that standardized tests measure relevant knowledge differences between test takers and not irrelevant, culturally specific factors. (JAZ)
