There are a number of important things to consider when preparing, selecting, or using an assessment procedure or test. Three such considerations are listed here. Which one does not specify a correct consideration?

Question

A. Accuracy of IRI results depends on careful selection of passages by the test developer; for example, if the "third-grade" passage is actually much easier or more difficult than typical third-grade material, the instrument may incorrectly suggest student reading levels.
B. While a cloze test may produce generally useful results with most students, it may not be used with any accuracy with students reading below first reader level; thus, for those who are reading at approximately preprimer or primer levels, teacher should select a maze test instead.
C. Some computer-administered tests lack content and technical adequacy, but other more recent versions attend better to issues of representative norming samples, the need for low standard errors of measurement (i.e., high reliability), and other faults seen in a number of computerized renditions.
D. Certain student behaviors while reading orally are marked by the teacher on his/her copy of the test passage, but are not considered negatively when scoring the performance; for example, repetitions of a word may simply mean that the student is giving himself or herself time to work out the word.
