Indicates this section is sealed, meaning the test taker cannot enter the section until authorized by the proctor.

Indicates that this section can be re-entered, meaning the test taker can return to this section after they have left the section. A common example of this is a two section test where one section does not allow the use of a calculator and the other does. Typically the test taker cannot return to the non-calculator section after they have used a calculator.

If this section requires any specific assets that are not defined as part of the items that make up the section and are shared by all items in the section, then they are included here. Examples may be specific tools or informational resources that need to be available to the student such as charts, maps, formulas, etc. that were not defined with any of the items in the section.

The RefId of the AssessmentAsset object that contains the asset.

This list identifies all possible items that can be delivered to the student in this section. If this is a sequential section, all items in this list will be delivered in sequence. If this is an adaptive section, then only some items from the item pool listed will be delivered.

Optional reference to a school associated with the administration.

Optional list of references to staff persons associated with the administration.

A StaffPersonal RefId.

A psychological construct measured by the assessment. Operationally, a subtest is a class of scores on an assessment. Some assessments may have only one subtest or type of score but most assessments measure more than one psychological construct. The subtest can be based upon items in a section or items that are empirically related. Subtests can also be composites of other subtests that are combined using a particular algorithm. Examples of subtests of an assessment are math total, reading composite, total test, and English composition.

The GUID that uniquely identifies an instance of the object.

Identifies the version of the subtest that this object instance represents. Note that new versions of subtests must generate new RefIds and therefore a new subtest object instance. The format of the numbering system is determined by the assessment provider.

Content area covered by the subtest.

Grade levels for which the subtest scores are valid.

References (possibly recursive) to other SIF AssessmentSubTests. This enables subtests or scores to be composites of other scores creating a parent/child hierachy. If any references are given here, the score is a composite score (it is a parent). The most common composite score is for total test score. The list must be unique. It is also important to note that composite scores may not be simple sums of the subordinate sub test scores.

A reference to a child AssessmentSubTest by RefId.

Indicator describing the purpose of an AssessmentSubTest as being that of a container for the child AssessmentSubTests. There will be no scores within this subtest.

An integer that defines the level or tier of the score in a multi-level arrangement of composite scores. Zero indicates the highest or root level.

References to LearningStandardItems that this subtest measures. The list must be unique. If the subtest measures a higher order standard, then only the parent standard should be identified in the list.

This is the short version of the name of, or code identifying, the assessment subtest. It is often used for quick reference and used in reports.

The description element provides an opportunity to pass additional information about the assessment and also be used for describing elements in a test hierarchy.

This element records the number of items included on the assessment. This number may be different than the possible score.

This is a list of the items that are used to compute the sub-test score.

This identifies the specific item that contributes to a sub-test score.

This provides a weighting factor for how the item score is used to compute a sub-test score when the item is correct or partially correct. Item weight of 1 indicates the full item score is used. A weight of .5 would indicate the item only contributes one half of the item score to the subtest. A weight of 0 indicates the item does not affect the sub test score.

This provides a weighting factor for how the item score is used to compute a sub-test score when the item is attempted and incorrect. Item weight should be a negative value if the item subtracts from the score if missed.

This provides a weighting factor for how the item score is used to compute a sub-test score when the item has not been attempted by the student. Item weight should be a negative value if the item subtracts from the score if not attempted.

19

An optional element that contains a URL pointing to the location of the response or additional response.

After the test has been scored, this value will indicate the correctness of the response. This element will be missing if the response has not yet been scored. For open ended items that are scored using a rubric, this value will also likely be missing. These items do not fall nicely into the right/wrong category.

This element will indicate if the item has been viewed or not by the student. Note this value can only be determined for online delivered tests. Paper tests should not use this attribute.

This element indicates if the student attempted the item. If a full or partial response is present then the item should be considered attempted. If the student never responded then the item was not attempted. If the item was answered and then later the answer was removed, then it is the rule of the assessment system that would determine if that was considered an attempt. For paper tests, an erasure would also be determined by the rules of the assessment system (assuming gray scanning scale capabilities).

The number of times a student changes their answer or attempts a response. For online tests, this would represent each time an item was changed after the original (complete) response was provided and the student navigated away from the item. For paper-based tests, if erasure analysis is performed, this could represent either the number of erasures or be set to 2 if multiple responses are detected.

The length of time the student spent viewing or answering this item. Only applies for online tests. If the student viewed the item multiple times, then this would be the accumulated total time spent on the item. As much as is possible, the delivery system should remove inter-item latency or item presentation time.

Identifies the sequence of the item as it was delivered to this student. For adaptive testing, this is the sequence in which the item was delivered. This should be the item sequence starting at 1 and continue to the end of the test (spanning all sections). This should include all items such as sample items.

Identifies the item on the assessment by name.

This identifies the rubric that was used to determine the score that is being recorded for this item response. This is only used for items that are scored using one or more rubrics.

This is the score the student received on the specific item.

This is the score code the student received for the specific item. Generally only applies to open ended items. Values are program specific, but example values might be 'BL = blank', 'OT = off topic', 'FL = foreign language'.

If the scoring process provides for comment codes, then this list will contain each comment code provided with the item score.

For each comment provided, this will identify the specific code for the comment. These codes will be program specific (no standardized values).

Allows for the description of the comment code to be provided by the scoring system.

If the item includes trait scores – typically open ended items – then this list will support one or more trait scores.

This is the container for the trait score elements.

If trait scores are provided, then this identifies the specific trait score that is provided. This value will be program specific (i.e. no standardized list of values available).

This will be the numeric trait score value.

If there is a code associated with the trait score, then this will allow for identifying the code.

This list will support providing feedback to the student from multiple sources.

If there is a coding system associated with the feedback concerning the score, then this will identify that code. The format and content of the code is determined by the assessment program.

Psychometric purpose or design-related comment about the question.

This is further qualification of a Student Score. If this is a teacher scored item, then this may be comments the teacher is providing back to the student.

This indicates the source for this feedback. May indicate if this is teacher, scorer, or system generated feedback. Values for this attribute would be determined by the assessment program.

If this score is preliminary, then this attribute value should be set. Preliminary scores may be provided for early use by the assessment program or user while final scoring is occurring.

The value of the score.

If the score value also determines a pass/fail level, then this indicator will specify the value.

This list will support providing feedback to the student from multiple sources.

Comment created by any logical analysis of this score.

This is further qualification of a Student Score. If this is a teacher scored item, then this may be comments the teacher is providing back to the student.

This indicates the source for this feedback. May indicate if this is teacher, scorer, or system generated feedback. Values for this attribute would be determined by the assessment program.

This is the number of responses that are included with the StudentScoreSet. Responses are those items that were attempted (partially or fully answered) by the student and not necessarily the number of items in the sub test (which can be determined from the sub test object).
