Error Classification

• Optional part of KTEA-II
• Item Level
• Item classified according to process, concept, or
  skill it assesses
• If item failed, check the error category
• Within-item
• Not automatic, clinician judgment, numerous
  categories
• Eg., failed subtraction of whole numbers (fact
  error, subtract smaller from larger,
  regrouping/subtraction, etc.)
• Error analysis booklet
• Scoring
• Error analysis norm tables Appendix K.
• More errors than average (weakness), less
  (strength)

Scoring

• Subtest Standard Scores
• Composite standard score
• Confidence intervals for subtests and composite
  standard scores
• Other scores
• PR, GE, AE, NCE, Stanine
• Composite Analysis (p3) intraindividual analysis,
  compares each composite with overall CAC
• Subtest compares each subtest from overall CAC
