Double Impression Marking of English Language Essay and Summary Questions
Wood, R.; Quinn, B.
Educational Review, 28, 3, 229-46, Jun 76
Impression marking of English Language essay and summary questions by pairs of examiners is shown, as expected, to be more reliable than single marking. Given the limited statistical information available, it is concluded that pairing of examiners can as well be done by random or quasi-random means as by attempts at calculated matching. (Editor/RK)
