State Variation

Public attention has been drawn to recent reports of state-by-state variation in standardized test scores, in particular the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT). In this paper, Brian Powell and Lala Carr Steelman attempt to show how the dissemination of uncorrected state SAT scores may have created an inaccurate public and governmental perception of the variation in educational quality. Their research demonstrates that comparing state SAT averages is illadvised unless these ratings are corrected for compositional and demographic factors for which states may not be directly responsible.

Since the performance of these students is quite different from the performance of Ss reported in other studies, normative tables are presented for male undergraduates.

The finding of lower Scholastic Aptitude Test scores for Ss inconsistent in direction of eye movement (Weiten & Etaugh, 1974) was not confirmed.
