Abstract

Do the mechanics involved in recording answers for standardized tests on separate answer sheets reduce the reliability and the average raw scores made? It is the purpose of this investigation to answer this question. In a previous research made by the writer, significant differences were found between the Modern School Achievement Test norms and average scores made by several thousand pupils of Western Kansas on a modified form of this test in which separate answer sheets were used.
