- a.
Each JPM includes the following, as applicable:
initial conditions initiating cues
/i references and tools, including associated procedures reasonable and validated time limits (average time allowed for completion) and specific designation if deemed to be time-critical by the facility licensee operationally important specific performance criteria that include:
detailed expected actions with exact criteria and nomenclature system response and other examiner cues statements describing important observations to be made by the applicant criteria for successful completion of the task identification of critical steps and their associated performance standards restrictions on the sequence of steps, if applicable
- b.
Ensure that any changes from the previously approved systems and administrative walk-through lj outlines (Forms ES-301-1 and 2) have not caused the test to deviate from any of the acceptance

b-c#
- 1.
The initial conditions are realistic, in that some equipment and/or instrumentation may be out of service, but it does not cue the operators into expected events.
- 2.
The scenarios consist mostly of related events.
U
. h
- 3.
Each event description consists of the point in the scenario when it is to be initiated the malfunction(s) that are entered to initiate the event cii the symptomstcues that will be visible to the crew the expected operator actions (by shift position) the event termination point (if applicable)
- 4.
No more than one non-mechanistic failure (e.g., pipe break) is incorporated into the scenano A
/4/7 without a credible precedin incident such as a seismic event.
- 5.
The events are valid with regard to physics and thermodynamics.
O
- 6.
Sequencing and timing of events is reasonable, and allows the examination team to obtain LA A
complete evaluation results commensurate with the scenaro objectives.
- 7.
If time compression techniques are used, the scenario summary clearly so indicates.
Operators have sufficient time to carry out expected activities without undue time constraints.
s l"/A l#
Cues are given.
- 8.
The simulator modeling is not altered.
- 9.
The scenarios have been validated. Pursuant to 10 CFR 55.46(d), any open simulator performance deficiencies or deviations from the referenced plant have been evaluated 7
to ensure that functional fidelity is maintained while running the planned scenarios.
- 10.
Every operator will be evaluated using at least one new or significantly modified scenario.
f
- l All other scenarios have been altered in accordance with Section D.5 of ES-301.
- 11.
All individual operator competencies can be evaluated, as verified using Form ES-301-6 f

Enter the level of knowledge (LOK) of each question as either (F)undamental or (H)igher cognitive level.
- 2.
Enter the level of difficulty (LOD) of each question using a 1 - 5 (easy -difficult) rating scale (questions in the 2 -4 range are acceptable).
- 3.
Check the appropriate box if a psychometric flaw is identified:
The stem lacks sufficient focus to elicit the correct answer (e.g., unclear intent, more information is needed, or too much needless information).
The stem or distractors contain cues (i.e., clues, specific determiners, phrasing, length, etc).
The answer choices are a collection of unrelated true/false statements.
Ia One or more distractors is not credible.

One or more distractors is (are) partially correct (e.g., if the applicant can make unstated assumptions that are not contradicted by stem).

Check the appropriate box if a job content error is identified:
The question is not linked to the job requirements (i.e., the question has a valid K/A but, as written, is not operational in content).
/ 9 -&
The question requires the recall of knowledge that is too specific for the closed reference test mode (i.e., it is not required to be known from memory).I The question contains data with an unrealistic level of accuracy or inconsistent units (e.g., panel meter in percent with question in gallons).
The question requires reverse logic or application compared to the job requirements.

Enter the level of knowledge (LOK) of each question as either (F)undamental or (H)igher cognitive level.
- 2.
Enter the level of difficulty (LOD) of each question using a 1 - 5 (easy -difficult) rating scale (questions in the 2 -4 range are acceptable).
- 3.
Check the appropriate box if a psychometric flaw is identified:
The stem lacks sufficient focus to elicit the correct answer (e.g., unclear intent, more information is needed, or too much needless information).
The stem or distractors contain cues (i.e., clues, specific determiners, phrasing, length, etc).
The answer choices are a collection of unrelated true/false statements.
One or more distractors is not credible.
One or more distractors is (are) partially correct (e.g., if the applicant can make unstated assumptions that are not contradicted by stem).
- 4.
Check the appropriate box if a job content error is identified:
The question is not linked to the job requirements (i.e., the question has a valid K/A but, as written, is not operational in content).
The question requires the recall of knowledge that is too specific for the closed reference test mode (i.e., it is not required to be known from memory).
The question contains data with an unrealistic level of accuracy or inconsistent units (e.g., panel meter in percent with question in gallons).
The question requires reverse logic or application compared to the job requirements.
- 5.
Check questions that are sampled for conformance with the approved K/A and those that are designated SRO-onlv (K/A and license level mismatches are unacceptable).
- 6.
Based on the reviewer's judgment, is the question as written (U)nacceptable (requiring repair or replacement), in need of (E)ditorial enhancement, or (S)atisfactory?
- 7.
At a minimum, explain any 'U" ratings (e.g., how the Appendix B psychometric attributes are not being met).
