- A classroom test designed to assess mastery of a point of gr | Test4400MA
- A classroom test designed to assess mastery of a point of grammar in communicative use will have criterion validity
if
1) test scores are at least 1 standard deviation above the mean
2) it predicts students" subsequent performance in the course accurately
3) it requires the test-takers to use the grammar point in question to perform certain communicative tasks
4) test scores are corroborated by other communicative measures of the grammar point in question
115- Which of the following is a problem with the classical true score theory (CTS)?
1) It considers all errors to be systematic.
2) It treats error variance as homogeneous in origin.
3) It distinguishes systematic errors from random errors.
4) It defines reliability in terms of true score variance.
116- The process of administering a newly developed test to a group of examinees with characteristics similar to those
of the target group is known as
1) objective testing
2) validation
3) indirect testing
3) pretesting
117- Unlike holistic marking scales, analytical writing scale
1) are not very reliable
2) are not useful for diagnostic feedback
3) provide a profile of the student's writing ability
4) overlook the various sub-skills that make up writing
118- Which of the following is NOT an assumption that underlies the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient?
1) The variables must be either nominal or interval measurements.

3) Each of the two sets of scores is normally distributed.
4) Each pair of score is independent from all other pairs.
119.- All of the following are among the problems with task-based assessment EXCEPT

2) authenticity
3) validity
4) representativeness
120- Compared to the K-R 21, K-R 20
1) is less difficult to calculate
2) is a less accurate estimate of reliability
3) requires multiple administrations of a test
4) avoids the problem of underestimating reliability
