Potts, George R. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1977
When subjects are tested on ordered information, performance is better on inferences than on information actually presented during training. Humphreys suggested that superiority on inferences derives from differential frequency. This experiment refutes that position, demonstrating that superiority on inferences is observed even when frequency is…

Patterns of Verbal and Performance Intelligence Quotients (IQ) and subtest scores of young gifted children (N=306) were identified on the Weschler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence (WPPSI). Most students had higher verbal than performance IQs, and the verbal IQ mean was significantly higher than the performance IQ mean. (Author/CB)

Peer reviewedLinn, Bernard S.; Zeppa, Robert – Journal of Medical Education, 1976
A student-oriented evaluation system is described and methods for oral examination (called team testing) evaluated. Based on qualitative and quantitative data, team testing seems to have merit. Faculty and students have repeatedly and overwhelmingly voted to continue the method. (LBH)

Peer reviewedButzin, Diane W.; And Others – Journal of Medical Education, 1982
A study examined the likelihood that the oral examination's outcome would be the same regardless of which four of the approximately 100 examiners made up the examining team. Reliability was found to be high, but further steps are being taken to increase it. (Author/MSE)

Peer reviewedSheehan, Kathleen M. – Journal of Educational Measurement, 1997
A new procedure is proposed for generating instructionally relevant diagnostic feedback. The approach involves constructing a strong model of student proficiency and then testing whether individual students' observed item-response vectors are consistent with that model. The approach is applied to the Scholastic Assessment Test's verbal reasoning…

The word finding skills of a group of 20 stuttering children (5 to 12 years of age) were compared with those of a control group of 20 normally speaking children matched for age and socioeconomic status. The Northwestern Word Latency Test was administered in which each child was shown 46 pictures of common objects. Any picture not named readily on…
