Why Tests Become Invalidated
A test may be invalidated due to:
- Administration error
- Incorrect routing
- Missing required responses
- Examiner decision (behavioral factors, interruptions, etc.)
- An intentional reset
What Happens When a Test Is Invalidated
When you choose to invalidate a test, WJ V displays a confirmation message warning that:
- The action cannot be undone
- No scores will be generated for that test
- Any clusters relying on that test will not include it
Pop-up will appear:
What To Do After Invalidating a Test
