[SOLVED] Final Analysis of a Selected Test

“This assignment is a culmination of the previous assignments you have
completed during this course. In this assignment, you will synthesize your
previous research as well as conduct research on the final element in the Code,
Element 9. Element 9 states that a test user, "evaluate(s) the available evidence
on the performance of test takers of diverse subgroups . . . determine(s) to the
extent feasible which performance differences may have been caused by factors
unrelated to the skills being assessed." Together, the previous course
assignments and this current one involving Element 9 will provide you with the
data, research, and literature reviews across all nine elements of the Code to
assist your decision-making process about the appropriate selection of a test.

For this final assignment:
 Locate reviews or research related to how Element 9 applies to your
selected test. If the research or reviews do not address this element in any
way, then you will need to cite the references you reviewed and note that
they were lacking in in addressing this element, drawing appropriate
conclusions for when a test is lacking such evidence.
 Synthesize all of the data and information you gathered on your selected
test throughout the course and identify highlights, both positive and
negative, both advantages and disadvantages, according to all nine
elements of the Code. See the link in the resources about the Meaning of
Synthesis.

 Evaluate your selected test based on these data and draw a conclusion
about whether it is a test that you would select, recommend, or even
defend, if necessary in practice. Note: You should not merely copy and
paste your earlier assignments for the final paper. Instead you will be
synthesizing the research you completed for each element into a summary
of that element that you will offer in support of your final evaluation. (For
example, note that the technical quality element (that is, Element 5) will be
only a synthesis and evaluation and not a repeat of the annotated
bibliography you completed in Unit 5.)

o Identify the strengths or weaknesses for each element, and
determine if the information about that element supports (or
opposes) the use of your selected test in the field and population to
be served.
o Incorporate recommendations about ways to improve the selected
test.
o Review all of your evaluations for each element and recommended
improvements to the test, and write an overall evaluation and
determination about the use of your selected test. Would you

recommend this test to a school district or business that you are
employed as a consultant? Would you be able to defend the use of
this test in a court proceeding?

Instructions for the content of the paper are in the template located in the
Resources. Write your assignment using the u09a1 Assignment Template
[DOCX].
Additional Requirements

Your paper should meet the following requirements:
 References: A minimum of nine references. These may include journal
articles, literature reviews, MMY reviews, and publisher websites. At least
five of the nine references must be from professional journals. It is likely
and appropriate that many of these references and citations were included
in one or more of your previous assignments. Alternatively, you may want
to supplement your paper with current, peer-viewed journal articles you
located after completing an earlier assignment. Those inclusions would
also be acceptable.

 Length of paper: At least six pages (not including title page, abstract, or
references).
Note: The articles you need to complete this assignment should be available
inside the library collection. In future courses, you may use the Capella library's
Interlibrary Loan service to obtain articles outside of the collection, but you
should not have to use the service for this course. In the event that you cannot
find articles covering a newer test edition, please refer to the List of Tests by
Type document in the resources. Note which tests have been designated as
acceptable for searching prior test editions.
