Chapter 7

This chapter includes several commonly used norm-referenced individual achievement tests. Information is presented that will enable you to understand how the basic methods of studying reliability and validity are applied to these instruments. You will learn some basic scoring methods that will allow you to generalize these skills to other instruments. Professionals working with students who require special services are concerned with how students perform on educational measures. One way to measure educational performance is to use norm-referenced achievement tests. Of all standardized tests, individually administered achievement tests are the most numerous (Anastasi & Urbina, 1998).
