Figueroa, Richard A.; Sassenrath, Julius M.
Psychology in the Schools, v26 n1 p5-19 Jan 1989
Administered System of Multicultural Pluralistic Assessment (SOMPA) to 700 White, 700 Black, and 700 Hispanic elementary school students. Ten years later, again tested 1,184 of original 2,100 students with SOMPA in high school. Results suggest that some subtests of the SOMPA may have some validity for predicting school achievement for students from different ethnic groups. (Author/NB)
