Curry, Robert L.; Geis, Lynna
Implicit in most of the recommendations for teaching reading is the inclusion of structural analysis as a part of the instructional program for developing skills in word recognition. This study focused on the development and standardization of a criterion referenced syllabication skills test designed to evaluate the individual proficiency of…

Thomas, David B. – 1975
Individualized instruction programs have imposed an increased reliance on tests as a means of selecting and routing students through sometimes complex programs. Testing which occurs within the training sequence is particularly vulnerable to inefficient use of both trainee and instructor time, but computer-based instruction system can provide a…

Barber, Lucie W.
The problem of concurrent validity of the Barber Scales of Self-Regard for Preschool Children is addressed by calculating product moment correlations for Self-Regard ratings and total Self-Concept and Motivation Inventory-Kindergarten From (SCAMIN) self-concept scores. The SCAMIN was admininstered to four and five year old children shortly after…

The Answer-Until-Correct (AUC) procedure has been proposed in order to increase the reliability of multiple-choice items. A model for examinees' behavior when they must respond to each item until they answer it correctly is presented. An expression for the reliability of AUC items, as a function of the characteristics of the item and the scoring…

Peer reviewedKansup, Wanlop; Hakstian, A. Ralph – Journal of Educational Measurement, 1975
Effects of logically weighting incorrect item options in conventional tests and different scoring functions with confidence tests on reliability and validity were examined. Ninth graders took conventionally administered Verbal and Mathematical Reasoning tests, scored conventionally and by a procedure assigning degree-of-correctness weights to…

Peer reviewedHakstian, A. Ralph; Kansup, Wanlop – Journal of Educational Measurement, 1975
A comparison of reliability and validity was made for three testing procedures: 1) responding conventionally to Verbal Ability and Mathematical Reasoning tests; 2) using a confidence weighting response procedure with the same tests; and 3) using the elimination response method. The experimental testing procedures were not psychometrically superior…
