THE USE OF SELF‐ASSESSMENTS IN EXAMINING
研究了自我评估结合成绩等证据如何提高考试的准确性和公平性,并探讨了如何调整自我评分以降低对少数群体的不利影响。
Self‐assessments combined with other evidences such as achievements and test scores lead to increased accuracy and fairness in examining. The use of self‐ratings to evaluate an applicant requires adjustment for degree of understanding of the element to be rated and for applicant's subjective base for rating. However, raw ratings may be used for psychometric analysis. Since minorities are usually represented in significant numbers among applicants but not in employed groups, this kind of analysis appears promising for studies designed to reduce adverse impact of tests and other measuring devices. An initial exploratory example of such analysis is described in detail.
