Benson, Bernard W.; Young, Linda L. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 1971
Describes validation procedures used with an individually administered test involving a branching program format to assess students level of cognitive achievement in biology. Reports results of comparisons of classes of teachers with BSCS or non-BSCS backgrounds. (AL)

Miklich, Donald R. – Measurement and Evaluation in Guidance, 1971
This article describes a device used to array the pieces of the Object Assembly Test, a subscale of the Wechsler Intelligence Scales for Children, in exact standardized order in less time than is now needed and without a screen, thus guaranteeing that the subject will have no previous experience with the pieces.

Lippey, Gerald – 1973
Classroom Teacher Support System (CTSS) is a prototype system for computer-assisted construction and scoring of tests, using questions from a central data bank. The computer programs for CTSS were developed by International Business Machines Corporation for study in the Los Angeles City Unified School District in 1969 and 1970. In order to provide…

Lippey, Gerald – 1974
Computer-assisted test construction is a simple, inexpensive natural complement to computer-based test scoring. Parallel tests can be made for individually-paced instruction, and the computer can produce feedback to improve item quality. The adaptability of computer-assisted test construction means that its introduction will likely be accepted by…

Lord, Francis E. – 1967
In order to identify orientation and mobility skills essential for young blind children, a master list of skills was compiled from developmental studies and teachers' observations and formed into a scale comprised of 47 subscales, each of which had three or more items arranged in developmental order. Scaling was done by jury judgment and by full…

Eichenberger, Rudolph J. – 1972
The purpose of this study was to develop and validate an instrument to assess the creativity of a student through the products he creates. The instrument was called the Judging Criteria Instrument (JCI). This instrument was administered to 33 general physics students. Multiple criteria of teacher judgment scores and Torrance Tests of Creative…

Klausmeier, H. J.; And Others – 1973
Theory and research regarding four levels of concept attainment and three uses of concepts as specified by the model of conceptual learning and development (CLD) are described. Subtests, utilizing three-dimensional stimuli, were developed to assess each level of attainment and each use of the concept equilateral triangle. The tests were…

Betz, Nancy E.; Weiss, David J. – 1974
Monte Carlo simulation procedures were used to study the psychometric characteristics of two two-stage adaptive tests and a conventional "peaked" ability test. Results showed that scores yielded by both two-stage tests better reflected the normal distribution of underlying ability. Ability estimates yielded by one of the two stage tests…

Otsuka, Allen; Kadis, Barney – Biochemical Education, 1988
Uses clinical cases taken from the medical or dental literature for examination of understanding certain aspects of the dental profession. Formulates questions derived from data presented in the case or attempts to present broad principles. Includes 15 example test questions. (MVL)

Newland, T. Ernest – 1969
A Blind Learning Aptitude Test (BLAT) was developed on the basis of sense of touch rather than on conventional experience, fine sensory discrimination, or verbal competency. From a pool of about 350 items, most of them used in testing intelligence in the sighted, a pool of 94 was selected and embossed after the manner of braille. A residual pool…
