<p>Created page with &quot;==Definition== The term &#039;&#039;&#039;criterion-referenced assessment&#039;&#039;&#039; is used for an <a href="/w/index.php?title=Assessment&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" class="new" title="Assessment (page does not exist)">assessment</a> where the performance of the individual or group being assessed is compared to pre...&quot;</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>==Definition==<br /> <br /> The term &#039;&#039;&#039;criterion-referenced assessment&#039;&#039;&#039; is used for an [[assessment]] where the performance of the individual or group being assessed is compared to pre-defined standards of mastery, rather than compared to the performance of others being assessed.<br /> <br /> Criterion-referenced assessment is contrasted with [[norm-referenced assessment]], where the goal is to compare the performance of individuals or groups being assessed with other individuals or groups.<br /> <br /> ==Examples==<br /> <br /> * Driving tests (used for granting driving licenses) are generally criterion-referenced. Drivers are expected to perform a specified list of tasks at a certain minimum competency (they generally need to avoid &quot;critical errors&quot; and make sure that they do not score more &quot;points&quot; for minor errors than a certain threshold).<br /> * A test of basic arithmetic skills may be criterion-referenced. For instance, a test of two-digit multiplication skills may involve asking people three questions involving multiplying two-digit numbers, with the qualifying criterion being that the student gets all three questions correct.<br /> * [[Advanced Placement]] tests in the United States are generally considered criterion-referenced, though the performance of the student body at large plays some role in determining the cutoffs and the required competency level.<br /> * [[Concept inventory]] tests are criterion-referenced assessments.<br /> <br /> ==Interchangeability with norm-referenced assessment==<br /> <br /> The same assessment instrument could be used as a criterion-referenced assessment or as a norm-referenced assessment. However, some instruments are better as criterion-referenced assessments, whereas others are better as norm-referenced assessments.<br /> <br /> ==Influence on assessment design==<br /> <br /> Criterion-referenced assessments should be designed in a manner that the score on the assessment accurately reflects the extent to which the criterion is satisfied. (Put some details that are actually useful in clarifying this).</div>
