Measuring Thinking with Standardized Science Tests.
Morgenstern, Carol Faltin; Renner, John W.
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, v21 n6 p639-48 Sep 1984
Determined which of 10 rational thinking powers are measured by 12 commercially-available standardized science tests. One result reported is that 90 percent of the test items required only recall. The conclusion was drawn that the producers of standardized tests are not concerned with measuring student achievement of the rational powers. (Author/JN)
