Peer reviewedCarpenter, Thomas P.; And Others – Mathematics Teacher, 1981
Results of the second mathematics assessment of the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) are analyzed with regard to the performance of 13- and 17-year-olds on probability exercises. The results suggest that this area has been neglected in mathematics instruction. (MP)

Bayless, D. L.; And Others – 1974
Raw scores on most standardized educational and psychological assessment instruments acquire meaning only when referenced to a set of norms. Test publishers should clearly describe their norming procedures, including the target population and the sample on which the norms are based. The primary purpose of this report is to illustrate some of the…

Schrader, W.B.; Hilton, Thomas L. – 1975
Project TALENT, the Equality of Educational Opportunity Survey, and the Base-Year Survey of the National Longitudinal Study tested national probability samples of American high school seniors in 1960, 1965, and 1972. This study is concerned with the feasibility of using these data for studying trends in educational attainment. Three separate…
