Metrological traceability in the social sciences: A model from reading measurement

Abstract

The central importance of reading ability in learning makes it the natural place to start in formative and summative assessments in education. The Lexile Framework for Reading constitutes a commercial metrological traceability network linking books, test results, instructional materials, and students in elementary and secondary English and Spanish language reading education in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Australia. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
