Allocation of Time to Test Items: A Study of Ethnic Differences.
Llabre, Maria Magdalena; Froman, Terry Wayne
Journal of Experimental Education, v55 n3 p137-40 Spr 1987
This study compared 38 Hispanic and 28 Anglo college students with respect to the amount of time allocated to items on a reasoning test administered by microcomputer. Results suggested that a time constraint may penalize Hispanic examinees. The applicability of computerized testing for studying test-taking strategy problems is illustrated. (Author/JAZ)
