Several psychological tests have been shown to have biases, which can be of different kinds, such as construct, method, or item bias. In a test that is biased, a certain group may get higher scores or a particular group may get lower scores. These biases may be rooted in culture, gender, race, socioeconomic status, career, education, and so on. Do research at your school library and online, and write about a psychological test that may have once been used extensively, but has been proven to be biased against or in favor of certain groups.

Answer:

In past years the College Entrance tests such as the ACT and SAT have been accused of this type of bias. The topics selected for essay questions favored middle and upper class white students who would have more familiarity with the culture or experiences that the questions covered.

Likewise the vocabulary and literature selections were things that minorities and less privileged students would be less familiar with.

Are the words of thomas paine enough to keep you at valley forge
lozanna [386]

The words of Thomas Paine in the phamplet <em>American Crisis </em>were enough to keep the revolution going and muster the troops under George Washington's command in 1776. In 1777, when they were suffering heavy losses due to the winter at Valley Forge, it was loyalty to the Patriot cause and to George Washington while training and doing drills that kept the troops busy and allowed for them to leave Valley Forge in 1778 more disciplined and spirited.
