The discussion in Drs. Sanchez Escobedo and Hollingworth's paper independently confirms virtually all our observations regarding the psychometric and interpretive deficiencies of the Mexican norms for very high-stakes decisions, such as that involved in an Atkins hearing. Test publishers have an ethical obligation to caution potential users against the premature use of a developing assessment that does not yet meet the needed precision and evidence of validity required for very high-stakes decisions.
桑切斯·埃斯科韦多博士和霍林沃思博士论文中的讨论独立地证实了我们几乎所有关于墨西哥常模在诸如阿特金斯听证会上所涉及的高风险决策中的心理测量和解释缺陷的观察结果。测试出版商有道德义务告诫潜在用户,不要过早使用尚未达到高风险决策所需的精度和有效性证据的正在开发的评估工具。
