ES-401 Nine Mile Point Unit 1 FY21 Written Examination Review Worksheet Form ES-401-9

2. 3. Psychometric Flaws 4. Job Content Flaws 5. Other
1. LOK 6. Source 7. Status Q LOD 8. Explanation (F/H) Stem Cred. Job- (B/M/N) (U/E/S)

(1-5) Cues T/F Partial Minutia #/Units Backward Q - K/A SRO Only Focus Dist Link 1 H 2 Y MB S 2 H 2 Y B S 3 H 2 Y MB S Increased plausibility of C and D distractors by 4 F 3 Y N E specifying CS corner room locations 5 F 2 Y B S 6 F 3 Y MB S 7 H 3 Y B S 8 F 3 Y B S 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).
  • #/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).
