Chapter 8 Performance and Measurement Precision Using the Adjusted Blueprint

8.1 Introduction

This chapter addresses student performance and operational test functioning with regard to precision and reliability when the adjusted (shortened) blueprint was used for the 2022-23 administration year. Some states who used the adjusted blueprint permitted remote proctoring, so results are provided showing the numbers of tests completed in person versus remotely. Measurement bias from the simulations produced by Cambium Assessment are provided, along with reliability, classification accuracy, standard errors of measurement, and overall score and achievement level results based on student data provided by California, Washington, Delaware, Hawaii, Idaho, Oregon, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. High school results are not presented separately by grade in order to prevent test results from being associated with states.

Prior to 2022-2023, claim scores for individual students were not made available for reporting for the adjusted blueprint. For 2022-2023, states may have elected to report only a total score for the adjusted blueprint or report composite claim scores for ELA/literacy and mathematics with the understanding that preliminary validity data were collected beginning in September 2022 and will be ongoing thereafter. The adjusted blueprints were submitted for federal assessment peer review in June 2023 and is pending final review and approval.

Alternatively, for 2022-2023, states may report composite claim scores for ELA/literacy and mathematics with the understanding that validity data is going to be collected through September 2022 in support of the composites. The composite claim scores are as follows:

ELA/literacy:

  • Composite Claim 1: Reading and Listening

  • Composite Claim 2: Writing and Research

Mathematics:

  • Composite Claim 1: Concepts and Procedures

  • Composite Claim 2: Problem Solving, Communicating Reasoning, and Modeling and Data Analysis

For individual students taking the adjusted blueprint, claim scores are calculated using MLE, as described in the Smarter Balanced Test Scoring Specifications (Smarter Balanced, 2023b); however, the scores are based on the items contained in a particular claim or combination of claims.

8.2 Modes of Administration

Table 8.1 through Table 8.14 present counts of summative assessment administrations by mode (i.e., remote or in-person). All assessments based on the adjusted blueprint were online, as the paper/pencil option was unavailable. These counts are presented at the aggregate level and disaggregated by gender, race/ethnicity, and various status flags: English learners (EL status), IDEA indicator, Section 504, and economically disadvantaged.

8.3 Measurement Bias

Prior to the release of the 2022-23 item pool, Cambium Assessment carried out simulation studies to ensure that the item pool, combined with the adaptive test administration algorithm, would produce satisfactory tests with regard to measurement bias and random measurement error as a function of student achievement, overall reliability, fulfillment of test blueprints, and item exposure. Simulation results for measurement bias with the adjusted blueprint are provided in this section. Measurement bias is systematic error between the true and estimated proficiency values.

Simulations for the 2022-23 administration were performed for each grade within a subject area for the standard item pool (English) and for accommodation item pools of braille and Spanish for mathematics and braille for ELA/literacy. Simulated item responses were generated based on assumed values for true student proficiency (drawn from normal distributions using parameters based on operational scores from the 2018-19 administration) and the operational item parameters. For the standard item pools, the number of simulees was 3,000 for grades 3-8 and 5,000 for grade 11. For the braille and Spanish pools, the number of simulees was 1,000 for grades 3-8 and 2,000 for grade 11. Estimated ability ( \(\hat{\theta}\) ) was calculated from the simulated tests using maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) as described in the Smarter Balanced Test Scoring Specifications. (Smarter Balanced, 2023b).

Table 8.15 and Table 8.17 show for ELA/literacy and mathematics, respectively, the bias in estimates of student proficiency based on the adjusted blueprint. Under the hypothesis of no bias, approximately 5% and 1% of the \(\theta_{i}\) will fall outside, respectively, 95% and 99% confidence intervals centered on \(\theta_{i}\). The mean bias for simulees at each decile of proficiency is provided in Table 8.16 and Table 8.18 for ELA/literacy and mathematics, respectively.

In most cases, mean bias was small and the percentage of simulated examinees with estimated achievement scores outside the confidence intervals centered on their true score was close to expected values of 5% or 1% (for the 95% and 99% confidence intervals, respectively). For grade 11 mathematics, there was mild elevation in average bias, along with mild deviation from expected confidence interval coverage. This was probably due to underestimation of theta in regions of student achievement far below the lowest cut score which was true for all grades but more extreme for mathematics grade 11. Estimation bias was negligible near all cut scores in all cases.

8.4 Reliability

Reliability estimates in this section are based on real data and the adjusted blueprint. Due to different schools’ responses to post-pandemic test administration in 2022-23, results presented here for demographic groups should not be considered as representative of the whole population. Table 8.19 and Table 8.20 show the reliability (Rho) of the test for all students and for students based on demographic group in ELA/literacy and mathematics.

8.5 Classification Accuracy

Classification accuracy measures how accurately test scores place students into reporting category levels. The likelihood of inaccurate placement depends on the amount of measurement error associated with scores, especially those nearest cut points, and on the distribution of student achievement.

Table 8.21 and Table 8.22 show classification accuracy of the total score achievement levels in ELA/literacy and mathematics, respectively, for each grade 3-8 and high school (HS). Section 2.4 explains how the statistics in these tables were computed. Classification accuracy for each category was high to moderately high for all grades.

8.6 Standard Errors of Measurement

The standard error of measurement (SEM) information in this section is based on student scores and associated SEMs included in the data Smarter Balanced receives from members after the administration. All of the SEM statistics reported here are based on the adjusted (shortened) blueprint and in the reporting scale metric.

Table 8.23 and Table 8.24 show the trend in the SEM by student decile for ELA/literacy and mathematics, respectively. Deciles were defined by ranking students from highest to lowest scale score and dividing the students into 10 equal-sized groups according to rank. Decile 1 contains the 10% of students with the lowest scale scores. Decile 10 contains the 10% of students with the highest scale scores. The SEM reported for a decile is the average SEM among examinees at that decile.

Table 8.25 and Table 8.26 show the average SEM near the achievement level cut scores. The average SEM reported for a given cut score is the average SEM among students within 10 scale score units of the cut score. In the column headings, “Cut1” is the lowest cut score defining the lower boundary of level 2, “Cut2” defines the lower boundary of level 3, and “Cut3” defines the lower boundary of level 4.

Dashed vertical lines in Figure 8.1 to Figure 8.14 represent the achievement level cut scores. The plots for the high school standard errors show cut scores for each grade 9, 10, and 11, separately.

8.7 Overall Score and Achievement Level Results

Two kinds of results are reported in the tables of this section: 1) summary statistics for overall scale scores and 2) achievement level percentages. The overall scale score represents student achievement numerically in terms of more or less. The achievement level percentages, combined with achievement level descriptors, help convey the meaning of the scores to stakeholders.

Table 8.27 to Table 8.40 show by grade and subject the number of students in total and by demographic group in the reporting states, the mean and standard deviation of their overall scale score, the percentage of students in each achievement level, and the percentage of students in levels 3 and 4 combined. Levels 3 and 4 are combined to show the total percentage of students who are on track for college and career readiness.
