Fairness and ethicality have been at the center of the debates on
the appropriate use of educational tests since the 1960s.
Particularly in high-stakes contexts, it is clear that fairness
should be a major concern to both the test developers, and to those
being tested, given that the fairness of a test is so intertwined
with its validity. Fairness Issues in Educational Assessment aims
to shed more light on the issue and bring to sight some of the ways
in which test fairness can be addressed. The contributions, written
by some of the most prominent figures in educational assessment,
address both theoretical and practical aspects of test fairness.
The wealth of ideas presented here will be valuable to novice
researchers and help them appreciate both the joy and complexity of
conducting fair educational measurement. This book was originally
published as a special issue of Educational Research and
Evaluation.
