Abstract

The Adult Performance Level Program and the tests which it has produced are the results of efforts initiated and supported by the U. S. Office of Education to improve the teaching and test ing of adults enrolled in Federally supported adult basic educa tion programs. This article examines the claims of the developers, identifies the theoretical problems which previously have been glossed over, scrutinizes the technical aspects of the development, and finally, evaluates the role of the U. S. Office of Education in these efforts.
