Bias. Improving Literacy Brief: Understanding Screening
Pentimonti, J.; Petscher, Y.; Stanley, C.
National Center on Improving Literacy
When evaluating the quality of any screening tool, it is important to determine whether or not the assessment is biased against different groups of students. We want to ensure that students do not receive higher or lower scores on an assessment for reasons other than the primary skill or trait that is being tested.
