3. Testing Scoring and Reporting Subsystem. The test scoring and
/
reporting scbsystem includes programs for data transsission,
for scoring and reporting of test results, and for update of
required pernanent files. !'
a. An inptit transmission (teleprocessing; program enables
remote transmission cf test data via optizal scanning
equipment.
b. Test scoring and reporting programs assemble test data,
score the data using stored ans'**er keys, update fleet
norm files, and prepare reports.
C. An output transnission (teleprocessing) program transmits
test result reports back to the originating test sites.
4. Test Analysis Subsystem. The test anai.y:is subsystem manipu-
lates acccxulated test results data to piovide infonzation
used in evaluations of t,Csts, personncl,\and training.

Item statistics probrams compute at&activeness indices
for eadh test iten response, discrimination index for
each test iten within an overall kno

and suary difficulty and discrinini: tion indices by
knowledge area, TOS level, etc. An/engineering

rev~2w
report is also prepared to list thoke test items failing
to meet a specified value of the discrimination index.
A score analysis program computes /i; ttndard T-scores for
each exaninee, computes actual and expected average
scores for each examinee group, and identifies exm,inees
and groups for later, manual evaluation.
A skill test analysis program recomputes skill exercise
scores based on final performance data accumulations and
computes summary statistics for USC in evaluation activities.
