Abstract:
If a test taker possesses test-wiseness and relevant partial knowledge, and if a test contains susceptible items, then the combination of these factors can result in improved or higher scores. In this article, test-wiseness is defined and described in terms of the elements that comprise test-wiseness. A model of test-wise test taking behavior is presented that shows the need for relevant partial knowledge in the application of test-wiseness. A review of the correlates, including race or ethnicity, of test-wiseness is then provided, followed by a review of the effects of training programs desig

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate potential predictors of test-wiseness, including self-perception of test-taking ability and a test-wiseness score on a multiple-choice test which served as a pretest for subsequent training on guessing strategies. Specific strategies incorporated into the test were (1) midrange, (2) length of option, (3) deduction, and (4) similarity/oppositeness. Five test items for each strategy and five items which were determined to be nonsusceptible to test-wiseness were included. The two predictor measures were administered to experimental ( n = 19) and contro

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the Test-Taking Strategy would improve performance on math curriculum-based assessments of students with disabilities, and if students reported an increased sense of math self-efficacy as a result of learning the Test-Taking Strategy. The Test-Taking Strategy uses mnemonics to teach strategies to help students successfully navigate through assessments. This study used an experimental, single-subject, multiple-probe, multiple base-line design (Horner & Baer, 1978). The design featured multiple participants, and followed the design features

The purpose of the study was to determine whether a test-wiseness training program would improve the academic achievement scores of sixth and seventh grade middle school students. Student achievement was measured in the areas of reading, language, mathematics, and work study skills. The assessment instrument utilized was the Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS). Comparisons were made between students who received the test-wiseness training program in the areas of reading, language, mathematics, and work study skills and those who did not.

Abstract:
Test-wiseness, possessed in different amounts by different individuals, is the ability to use test format, test characteristics, and/or the testing situation to receive a high score. As such, test-wiseness is an unwanted source of variance which can inflate test scores, thus invalidating test results. Problems of inappropriate interpretation may arise when test scores are affected by test-wiseness. The present study addressed the relationship between test-wiseness and English ability, as measured by the British Columbia Provincial English 12 Examination for June of 1989. The English 12 exami

Black middle school students in the United States perform poorly on standardized reading achievement tests in comparison to other racial and ethnic groups. The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of a vocabulary-focused test preparation program for underachieving Black middle school students. Thorndike's concept of test-wiseness, a test-taking capacity, provided the theoretical foundation for the study. Research questions investigated the difference in reading test scores on the Discovery Education Assessment of underachieving Black middle school students who participated in

Abstract:
This work focuses on the test-taking strategies employed by STANAG 6001 English exam candidates in receptive skills tests and on how these strategies are employed. The qualitative analysis reveals that candidates have their preferred strategy of dealing with test items, they use a number of test-management and test-wiseness strategies, and that the use of a particular strategy depends on a number of factors.
