Test Bias: In God We Trust; All Others Must Have Data.
Reynolds, Cecil R.
Journal of Special Education, v17 n3 p241-60 Fall 1983
The author empirically evaluates bias in construct validity and criterion-related validity of intelligence tests and bias in personality scales and concludes that little evidence exists to substantiate claims of bias for well-constructed, properly standardized tests. Therefore,, low-scoring minority or disadvantaged children need remedial and special education. (Author/MC)
