Question

Nisa has grown up in a small village in the foothills. There was no electricity and water had to be hand pumped. They seldom saw people from the "outside." When she entered school the bus had to pick her up at 6:30 a.m. in order for her to arrive at school by 8:30 a.m. During the fourth grade the entire class was given a group intelligence test. Nisa did not score well because:

a. the norms upon which the test was developed did not reflect her background.
b. her background caused the relationship between reliability and validity to be inaccurate.
c. she probably had difficulty learning to read.
d. she did not understand test taking.

From my understanding I think it is a or b.

a. the norms upon which the test was developed did not reflect her background.

Answer 2

Answer 3
