Several samples of black and white students were drawn from the 1970 PSAT administration in Georgia and studies for item x race interaction on both the verbal and mathematical sections of the test. (Authors)

A two-factor analysis of variance with multiple measurements on one factor was conducted among the 40 items of the Vocabulary test of the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) for six language groups. All sources of variance were found significant beyond the one per cent level. (Author/RC)

This study examines a common set of equating items for their appropriateness to both American and Canadian populations and, to determine the equations for converting scores from the verbal and mathematical scales of the 1971 form of the Canadian Scholastic Aptitude Test (the future standard continuing scales of the CSAT) to the corresponding…

The purpose of this study was to establish score equivalencies between the College Board Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) and its Spanish language equivalent, the College Board Prueba de Aptitud Academica (PAA). For the first phase, two sets of items, one originally appearing in Spanish and the other in English, were chosen; and each set was…

Several samples of Black and White students were drawn from the 1970 PSAT administration in Georgia and studied for item x race interaction on both the verbal and mathematical sections of the test. When subsamples of candidates were drawn from their respective racial groups, matched on mathematical for the study of verbal items and matched on…

Two-factor analyses of variance with multiple measurements on one factor were conducted for the five sections of the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) and six language groups, and also for the items of each section, based on data collected at the first administration of this form of the test, in October 1969. the principal findings,…

The author describes the evolution of the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT). He describes some of the contributions to educational research made by inquiries based on the SAT and gives particular attention to the way scaling and equating procedures for the SAT have evolved over the last half century.

Linear and equipercentile equating conversions were developed for two forms of the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) quantitative test and the verbal-plus-quantitative test. From a very large sample of students taking the GRE in October 1981, subpopulations were selected with respect to race, sex, field of study, and level of performance (defined…
