Refer to Section D of ES-401 and Appendix B for additional information regarding each of the following concepts:

1.

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 a 1 (easy) to 5 (difficult); questions with a difficulty between 2 and 4 are acceptable.

3.

Check the appropriate box if a psychometric flaw is identified:

Stem Focus: The stem lacks sufficient focus to elicit the correct answer (e.g., unclear intent, more information is needed, or too much needless information).

Cues: The stem or distractors contain cues (e.g., clues, specific determiners, phrasing, length).

T/F: The answer choices are a collection of unrelated true/false statements.

Cred. Dist.: The distractors are not credible; single implausible distractors should be repaired, and more than one is unacceptable.

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

4.

Check the appropriate box if a job content flaw is identified:

Job Link: 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).

Minutia: 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).

  1. /Units: The question contains data with an unrealistic level of accuracy or inconsistent units (e.g., panel meter in percent with question in gallons).

Backward: 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 K/As that are designated SRO-only. (K/A and license-level mismatches are unacceptable.)

6.

Enter questions source: (B)ank, (M)odified, or (N)ew. Verify that (M)odified questions meet the criteria of Form ES-401, Section D.2.f.

7.

Based on the reviewers judgment, is the question, as written, (U)nsatisfactory (requiring repair or replacement), in need of (E)ditorial enhancement, or (S)atisfactory?

8.

At a minimum, explain any U status ratings (e.g., how the Appendix B psychometric attributes are not being met).
