A New Approach to Examining Validity — Test-taking Strategy Investigation

A new type of approach, the analysis of the process and strategies of test taking, provides new insights into the factors that affect test performance and construct validity. One can find the fact that what test constructors think is being tested or will be tested is not always what the test actually will do when test-taking strategies are concerned about. This paper makes a brief review of the approach, mainly focusing on test-taking strategies and the most common way— verbal report approach— of inquiring those strategies.
