註釋

Twenty-four American academics contribute 14 chapters examining cultural bias, dominant culture thinking, and domain specificity which constitute the primary, negative effects of high-stakes testing on students of color in the American educational system. The text sets the issue of testing in an historical perspective and offers appropriate definitions and measures of bias in testing. It concludes with discussion of culturally sensitive schooling and strategies for individual success which appear to be producing positive results among Maori students in New Zealand.
