The market for testshas not only been expanding rapidly, but has also been changingsharply in structure into a fractured marketplace. Indeed, one of themain features of this book is that the market for standardized testingis highly fractured - with segments of the market facing monopolyconditions, others facing oligopoly conditions and still others wherenear free-market conditions exist..One of the main premises of the book is that the structures of marketshave strong implications for how those markets perform. While thisnotion is widely accepted among economists, it is not widelyappreciated in educational research. A second motivation for the bookis that very little scholarly attention has been focused on thestandardized testing industry. This topic - the structure of thetesting industry and implications for the quality of tests and testuse - affects how we evaluate the learning of students, theeffectiveness of teaching, the quality of schools and the educationalhealth of the nation. Of particular concern to the authors is onevital aspect of test quality: test validity..This | 出版日期 | Book 1993 | 关键词 | Affect; Motivation; attention; education; educational research; health; learning; marketing; quality; researc | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-011-2196-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-010-4973-3 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-011-2196-5 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 1993 |
