Reliability of Marking in Eight GCE Examinations
Murphy, R. J. L.
British Journal of Educational Psychology, 48, 196-200, Jun 78
Eight recent General Certificate of Education (GCE) examinations, containing mainly free-response questions, were investigated in terms of their marking reliability. The tests of 200 randomly selected candidates from each subject were re-marked by a senior GCE examiner, and these marks were compared with the marks awarded previously as a result of team marking procedures.
