The Assessment of Professional Competence.
Kane, Michael T.
Evaluation and the Health Professions, v15 n2 p163-82 Jun 1992
A proposed model for the validity of measures of professional competence treats validation as the evaluation of inferences drawn from test scores, focusing on evaluation, generalization, and extrapolation. The model is used to indicate strengths and weaknesses of assessments of professional competence: observations of performance, simulations, and objective tests. (SLD)
