Why is it important that KTSS follows ethical guidelines?
Adherence to ethical guidelines assures parents that their children will not have been prepared in a way that’s inappropriate. Inappropriate test preparation occurs when children are given actual test material, or material that is so purposefully similar to test material, that test results are meaningless. Test examiners can sometimes detect if a child has been prepared inappropriately, and computer-scored test protocols can sometimes show evidence of statistically improbable response patterns. Whether detected or not, inappropriate test preparation can have unfortunate consequences.
