_Directions for Scoring in Alpha Test._
GENERAL RULES
1. Each item is scored either right or wrong. No part credits are given.
2. In general, items evidently corrected stand as corrected.
3. In tests where the score is “Number Right,” only wrong items need be
checked in scoring. In Tests 4 and 5, where the score is “Right minus
Wrong,” wrong and omitted items must be separately checked.
4. Indicate the last item attempted by drawing a long line under that
item and out into the margin.
5. Enter the score for each test in lower right-hand corner of the test
page and encircle it. When the test has been rescored, a check mark may
be made beside the circle.
6. Red or blue pencil increases accuracy of scoring.
TEST 1.
(Score is number right.)
1. No credit is given for any item in which _more_ is done than the
instructions require.
2. In an item where something is to be written “_in_” a given space,
give credit if a mark crosses a line from haste or awkwardness: give no
credit if the position is really ambiguous.
3. Where something is to be underlined or crossed out, give credit if
two or three underlinings are made in the required place, and give
credit for any method of crossing out.
4. _Item 2._—The pencil line must begin and end either on the
circumference or within the circles indicated. It may touch the
intermediate circles, but must not cut through them.
5. _Item 6._—In the circle marked “not 12” there must be some number
which is not 12, such as 5, 0, 27.
6. _Item 9._—The proper numbers must be crossed out to receive credit.
7. _Item 10._—In Form 5, “2” alone and “3” alone, but not “2 or 3,” in
each of the two largest parts; “5” alone and “6” alone, but not “5 or
6,” in the next to the smallest part, are correct. Similarly for other
forms.
8. _Item 11._—The lines must cross, or at least touch, the proper
numbers; they may or may not cut the accompanying letters. Mere
indication of the square, triangle, etc., is not sufficient.
9. _Item 12._—Underlining in place of crossing out is wrong.
TEST 2.
(Score is number right.)
1. Answer may be written on dotted line or elsewhere near its problem.
2. If two answers are given to any problem count as wrong.
