Student Self-Selection and Test Repetition.
Alderman, Donald L.
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v41 n4 p1073-81 Win 1981
Student self-selection in deciding to repeat a test was examined by contrasting the test performance of students taking the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) as juniors and again as seniors with the test performance of students taking the SAT only once as juniors. Results suggest there is self-selection in test repetition. (Author/GK)
