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 (i.e., clues, specific determiners, phrasing, length, etc.).  "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, more than one is unacceptable.  "Partial":  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: "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).
