Linking Statewide Tests to the National Assessment of Educational Progress: Accuracy of Combining Test Results across States.

Ercikan, Kadriye

Applied Measurement in Education, v10 n2 p145-59 1997

Linking scores from the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) to statewide test results was studied. Results based on an equipercentile procedure suggest that such a link does not provide precise information. Information from a linking study should be limited to rough estimates of students in each NAEP achievement level. (SLD)
