Survey of Test Security Practices.

Mehrens, William A.; And Others

Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, v12 n4 p5-9,19 Win 1993

The test security policies and practices of state departments of education were investigated in a survey responded to by 46 states for 1989-90. The most detailed test security procedures have been implemented when test stakes are highest. Complex procedures are only considered cost effective in large-scale programs. (SLD)
