Willingham, Warren W.; Pollack, Judith M.; Lewis, Charles
Journal of Educational Measurement, v39 n1 p1-37 Spr 2002
Proposed a framework of possible differences between grades and test scores and tested the framework with data on 8,454 high school seniors from the National Education Longitudinal Study. Identified differences and correlations among achievement factors. Differences between grades and tests give these measures complementary strengths in high-stakes assessment. (SLD)
