Test Anxiety 1 Running head: TEST ANXIETY A Confirmatory Factor Analysis Approach to Test Anxiety

This paper addresses the role of test anxiety in aptitude testing. Our approach is rooted in confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). We find that the usual parameter constraints used for model identification in CFA have non-trivial implications for the effects of interest. We suggest two methods for dealing with this identification problem. Firstly, we consider testable parameter constraints that i...

Overcoming observability problems in distributed test architectures

In distributed testing, a distributed test architecture is used where a tester is placed at each port of the system under test (SUT) N and an input sequence is applied. When N is a state based system specified as a finite state machine (FSM) M an input sequence to be applied to N can be constructed from M ; the input sequence is then called a test sequence or a checking sequence. The applicatio...
