: 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 . . The distractors are not credible; single implausible distractors should be repaired, more than one is unacceptable . . 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 KIA 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 KIA and those that are designated SRO-only (KIA and license level mismatches are unacceptable).

[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 (LOO) 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 .
The distractors are not credible; single implausible distractors should be repaired, more than one is unacceptable .
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 KIA 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 KIA and those that are designated SRO-only (KIA and license level mismatches are unacceptable).
: 6.           Enter question source: (B)ank, (M)odified, or (N)ew. Check that (M)odified questions meet criteria of ES-401 Section 0.2.f.
: 7.           Based on the reviewer's 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" ratings (e.g., how the Appendix B psychometric attributes are not being met).

[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 (LOO) 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 .

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

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 KIA 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 KIA and those that are designated SRO-only (KIA and license level mismatches are unacceptable).
6. Enter question source: (B)ank, (M)odified, or (N)ew. Check that (M)odified questions meet criteria of ES-401 Section 0.2.f.
7. Based on the reviewer's 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" ratings (e.g., how the Appendix B psychometric attributes are not being met).
