Which testing method is used to measure an individual’s level of understanding or skill? A. Norm-referenced
B. Criterion-referenced
The correct answer is B. Criterion-referenced.
A criterion-referenced testing method measures an individual’s level of understanding or skill against a fixed set of criteria or learning standards. This approach determines whether a person has achieved the desired proficiency in a specific area, rather than comparing their performance to that of others, which is what norm-referenced tests do.
