Performance Series Computer Adaptive Assessments Suggested Learning Objectives Scaled Score of 2410 Suggested Learning Objectives = Skills in the PS Assessment that have difficulty values immediately above the student’s overall Scaled Score Attained Objectives = Skills in the PS Assessment that have difficulty values below the student’s overall Scaled Score Item Difficulty = Scaled Score Range *Every item in Performance Series is assigned a difficulty value after item calibration. Items are then placed along Scantron’s Scaled Score continuum in order from least difficult (1300) to most difficult (3700).
