摘要
A sample of teacher-made K through 12th-grade-level tests (N = 175) was analyzed to determine item types used, item cognitive functioning levels, the frequency and nature of construction errors, and whether these test characteristics varied with the teachers' years of teaching experience. It was found that multiplechoice, matching, and short response item types were most frequently used, that test items functioned primarily at the knowledge cognitive level, that matching exercises contained the most types of construction errors, and that neither the frequency nor the nature of the construction errors varied with teachers' experience. © 1991.
