What is the major drawback of using percentile ranks to describe students' performance on a standardized test?
a. Even many low-achieving students tend to get above-average percentile scores.
b. Percentiles tend to underestimate how much students have actually learned.
c. Because most students get fairly low scores, they become easily discouraged and their self-efficacy decreases.
d. Students in the middle range can be quite similar in achievement and yet have scores that are somewhat dissimilar.
Question 2
When we represent students' test performance in terms of standard scores, we must first know the standard deviation of those scores. This statistic tells us:
a. What the average student's performance was
b. How close together or far apart the scores are
c. Whether the test has high predictive validity
