COMMENTS ON “IMPLICATIONS OF CRITERION-REFERENCED MEASUREMENT”1 |
|
| Authors: | GEORGE B SIMON |
| Abstract: | Criterion-reference as opposed to norm-reference applies to the scores from a test and not to the content or format of a test, hence it is proper to refer to criterion-referenced scores or measures and not to criterion-referenced tests. This concept of criterion-referenced measures is applicable to formative evaluation generally or whenever the objective is mastery of subject matter rather than discrimination among students. |
