A) Reliability
B) Statistical formation
C) Cross-cultural fairness
D) Validity
E) Practicality

Practicality

When selecting a test, one of the cornerstones of test worthiness is practicality. Practical concerns include time, cost, format, readability, and ease of administration, scoring, and interpretation.

Group Format

A method of presenting or facilitating activities, treatments, or learning in a group setting rather than individually.

Individualized Tests

Tests tailored to assess specific abilities or characteristics of an individual, often used in educational or clinical settings.
