Please follow directions listed…… Write a 4-5 page test review paper on an assessment instrument designed to measure cognitive abilities, achievement, or intelligence. The following provides an outline of a test review. Title Page In a paragraph present the title of the test, authors, publisher, date published, age ranges and other relevant demographics for the individuals it is used for, and time required for administration of the test. Discuss what the test attempts to measure, who the test is intended to be used with, basic principles and/or theories upon which the test is based, and any other special characteristics of the test. This is a discussion of the psychometric properties of the specific test you are reviewing. The discussion should include reliability (test-retest, internal consistency, etc.), validity(content, criterion, construct), normative data (standardization group demographic characteristics), and scores (overall test/composite scores available, averages, and their ranges). : The following is the range for coefficient scores and what they mean. Use this information when you review the reliability and validity properties for
the test you are reviewing. 1.00 – .70 equals robust; .69 – .50 equals good; .49 – 0 equals low. For example the test-retest score for reliability is .75 then the test has robust test-retest reliability. Or the construct validity score is .50 then the test has good construct validity. Since you will not have access to the actual test manuals themselves, this area should include of the behaviors or thoughts sampled (depression, anxiety, verbal comprehension, mathematical reasoning, etc.), how the test is administered, overview of test items (e.g., format and types), and ease and nature of scoring the test (are the items scored objectively or subjectively). Describe any ethical, legal, or other issues related to the test administration, scoring, or usage of results. Identify and explain any demographic categories that may be correlates to the ability tested. Briefly sum up the strengths and weaknesses of the test and provide a general evaluation of the test. 5. Do not use a random test on the Internet. You must present a published psychological test that meets industry standards in the field of psychology. Again make use of the list I provided,
