ABSTRACTIn 1965 the International Association for the
Evaluation of Educational Achievement (tEA) inaugurated across-national survey of achievement in six subjects: Science,Reading Comprehension, Literature, English as a Foreign Language,French es a Foreign Language, and Civic Education. The overall aim ofthe project was to use international tests in order to relate studentachievement and attitudes to instructional, social, and economicfactors, and from the results to establish generalizations of valueto policy makers worldwide. Contained here are three Civics cognitivetests for population I, It, IV. Population I consists of studentsaged 10 to 11 years; population II, 14 to 15 years; and populationIV, students enrolled in the final year of pre-university training.(RC)

These manuals are available from ERIC Clearinghouse.
The following extracts from these manuals have been appended to this particular
IPA instrument to provide researchers with the minimum necessary test instruction
information (e.g., such things an the instructions on the practice items and the
warnings coneerning the amount c' time left for the test have been omitted here).
for full details, please consul; the appropriate manuals.
The Data Bank Instrument Number which appears below is a new neither assigned
isince the instruments were administered for the purpose of easily linking items
in the instruments with the resultant variables in the Data Bank holdings. Each
such variable is named in the codebook using the new instrument number and
(usually) the number of the item within the instrument from which the variable is
derived. The key to the new instrument numbers is as follows;

Each of the questions or incomplete statements in this test is followed
by five possible answers. You are to decide which one of these answers
is best.
Mark your answer by putting a tick () in the appropriate space on the
test booklet. If you want to change an answer, be sure to erase the o14
mark completely. You will have 35 minutes* to answer the 41 questions
in this test. This is NOT a test on which you will be graded. Therefore,
do NOT guess at any answer unless you are fairly sure that you know the
answer. If you are unsure of the answer, simply leave it blank. You
must mark your answer by putting a tick next to the answer you have chosen.
Now we are ready to begin. Try to answer every question, but do not
spend teg) much time on any one question. If a question seers too difficult
go on to the next one. Remember that no-one is expected to get all the
answers right. Just do your best.

A national center may give more time (an extra 10 minutes) as it feels
necessary.

This Bulletin contains Civic Education Instruments for Populationsf- I, II, and IV. The instruments are contained in three booklets for7-- *sob population. The first booklet consists of two seotions, CognitiveBow Society Works. The second is Affeovive Scales and the third is
7-10o lookground Questionnaire. The number on the front of each bookletemeresponds to its place in the sequenoe or testing. Although there isa different set of booklets for each population, the same set of answer
_cards will be used by all. Manual 1 gives specific information about-teetists sessions.
7 Ranh population has a different version of the Cognitive section,but the remaining instruments are the same for. all populations.
Population I will mark their answers directly in the test bookletfor all parts of the instruments since no NBC cards will be used forthis population. The Cognitive seotions for Populations II and IT havebeen prepared for MRC cards. Other toots are not in NBC card format,but if the National Center wishes to use IOC cards for Populations IXand IT for these tests, it can dc so by making the following changes:

Directions to students for marking
The second paragraph of the directions at the front of each testShould reads
"Mark your answer by blackening the appropriate spumeon your answer card. It you want to change an answer, besure to erase the old mark coaplete.y."
Answer choices
The choices the student is given from which to select his answersmust be lettered A, B, C, etc. to correspond to ovals on an answercard. This will often neooluitate a change in the directions before aset of items. For example, the direotions for the first set of ques-tions in the Background 4uestionnalre world read as follows it thestudents were using NR nards to answer:
"What kind of films or programs do yov like to see? Hereare different sorts of pro m* and films. i t you wouldlike to see it, blacken in the oval marked A on youranswer card. If you dvuld not mini wbether you saw It ornot, choose B. If you would not like to soe it, choose C."

First we are going to do a test to see what you know about how our nation
works and its relations with the rest of the world. Look at the directions
on the front of Booklet 3d and follow along silently as I read them aloud.
Each of the questions or incomplete statements in this test is followed
by five possible answers. You are to decide which one of these answers is
best.
Mark your answer by blackening in the appropriate space on the answer card.
If you want to change an answer, be sure to erase the old mark completely.
You will have 35 minutes to answer the 47 questions in this test. This
is NOT a test on which you will be graded. Therefore, do NOT guess at
any answer unless you are fairly sure that you know the answer. If you
are unsure of the answer simply leave it blank.
Mark only one answer for each auestiop. If you change your mind about an
answer, be sure to erase the first mark completely. Do NA spend too
much time on any one question. If a question seems too difficult go on to the
next one.

CIVIC EDUCATION BULLETIN
ACCOMPANYING NOTES
This Bulletin contains Civic Education instruments for Populations
I, II, and IV. The instruments are contained in three booklets for
each population. The first booklet consists of two sections, Cognitive
and How Society Works. The second is Affective Scales and the third is
the Background Questionnaire. The number on the front of each booklet
corresponds to its place in the sequence of testing. Although there is
a different set of booklets for each population, the same set of answer
cards will be used by all. Manual 1 gives specific information about
testing sessions.
Each population has a different version of the Cognitive section,
but the remaining instruments are the same for all populations.
Population I will mark their answers directly in the test booklet
for all parts of the instruments since no MRC cards will be used for
this population. The Cognitive sections for Populations II and IV have
been prepared for MRC cards. Other tests are not in MRC card format,but if the National Center wishes to use MRC cards for Populations IIand IV for these tests, it can do so by making the following changes:
Converting Row Society Works_. Affective Scales IBLEtagnaajbatt:tionnaire to MRC Card Form
Directions to students for markin( their answers
The second paragraph of the directions at the front of each test
should read:
"Mark your answer by blackening the appropriate spaceon your answer card. If you want to change an answer, besure to erase the old mark completely."
Answer choices
The choices the student is given from which to select his answers
must be lettered A, B, C, etc. to correspond to ovals on an answer
card. This will often necessitate a change in the direcUons before a
set of items. For example, the directions for the first set of ques-tions in the Background Questionnaire would read as follows it thestudents were using MRC cards to answer:
"What kind of films or programs do you like to see? Hereare different sorts of programs and films. If you wouldlike to see it, blacken in the oval marked A on youranswer card. If you would not mind whether you saw it ornot, choose B. If you would not like to see it, choose C."

The questions would then read as follows:
1. Cowboys and Westerns .

3. Current events

I would notlike to seeit

The order of questions and the sequence of answers must, of course,not be changed.
Semantic differential items
The format for the semantic differential items in the AffectiveScales (pages 2, 3, and 4) will also need to be changed if MR0 cardsare used. Page 2, which explains how to answer the items should readas follows:
"Here are some words and sentences which have been usedby different people to describe the way they think about yourLocal Council (substitute national phrasing to indicatemunicipal government). Each time we give you two words withopposite meanings and letters in between. For example:
Friendly:ABODE:UnfriendlyWe want to know your opinion about your Local 'Council. If youthink that your Local Council is zen friendly, blacken in theoval on your answer card marked A, since A is closest to'Friendly'. If you think your Local Council is very unfriendly,blacken in the oval marked E, since E is closest to 'Unfriendly'.If you don't know, blacken in the oval marked C. If you thinkyour Local Council it friendly, but not so= friendly, chooseII, and if you think it is unfriendly, but nom= unfriendly,blacken in D.
Now turn over to the next page. Read through each statement,then mark your answer card to show how you think about yourLocal Council.

First we are going to do a test to see what you know about how ournation works and its relations with the rest of the world. Look atthe directions on the front of Booklet 50 and follow along ailentlyas I read them aloud.
Each of the questions or incomplete statements in this test is followedby five possible answers. You are to decide which one of these answersis best.
Mark your answer by blackening in the appropriate space on the answercard. If you want to change an answer, be sure to erase the old markcompletely. You will have 35 minutes to answer the 48 questions in thistest. This is NOT a test on which you will be graded. Therefore, donot guess at any answer unless you are fairly sure that you know theanswer. If you are unsure of the answer simply leave it blank.Mark only one answer for each question. If you change your mind aboutan answer, be sure to erase the first mark completely. Do NOT spendtoo much time on any one question. If a question seems too difficultgo on to the next one.

ACCOMPANYING NOTES

BEST COPY AVAILABLE
This Bulletin contains Civic Education instruments for PopulationsI, II, and IV. The instruments are contained in three booklets foreach population. The first booklet consists of two sections, Cognitiveand Bow Society Works. The second is Affective Scales and the third isthe Background Questionnaire. The number on the front of each bookletcorresponds to itR place in the sequence of testing. Although there isa different set oz booklets for each population, the same set of answercards will be used by all. Manual 9 gives specific information abouttesting sessions.
Each population has a different version of the Cognitive section,but the remaining instruments are the same for all populations.
Population I will mark their answers directly in the test bookletfor all parts of the instruments since no MRC cards will be used forthis population. The Cognitive sections for Populations II and IV havebeen prepared for MRC cards. Other tests are not in MRC card format,but if the National Center wishes to use MRC cards for Populations ITand IV for these tests, it can do so by making the following changes:
Csamlingata/AmittLyorks. Affective Scales and Background Que.-tionnaire to MRC Card Form
Directions to students for markies their answers
The second paragraph of the directions at the front of each testshould read:
"Mark your answer by blackening the appropriate spaceon your answer card. If you want to change an answer, besure to erase the old mark completely."
Answer choices
The choices the student is given from which to select his answersmust be lettered A, /1, C, etc. to correspond to ovals on an answercard. This will often necessitate a change in the directions before aset of items. For example. the directions for the first set of quee.tione in the Background Questionnaire would read as follows if thestudents were using MRC cards to answer:
"What kind of films or programs do you like to see? Hereare different .:.-orts of programs and films. If you wouldlike to see it, blacken in the oval marked A on youranswer card. If you would not mind whether you saw it ornot, choose B. If you would not like to see it, choose C."
-2-
The questions would then read as follows:
1. Cowboys and Westerns
2. The work of artists ansculptors
3. Current events OOOOOO

The order of questions and the sequence of answers must, of course,not be changed.
Semantic
The format for the semantic differential items in the AffectiveScales (pages 2, 3, and 4) will also need to be changed if MRC cardsare used. Page 2, which explains how to answer the items, should readas follows:
"Here are some words and sentences which have been usedby different people to describe the way they think about yourLocal Council (substitute national phrasing to indicatemunicipal government). Eaoh time we give you two words withopposite meanings and letters in between. For example:
Priendly:ABCDE:UnfriendlyWe want to know your opinion about your Local Council. If youthink that your Local Council is nezz friendly, blacken in theoval on your answer card marked A, since A is closest toTtiendly'. If you think your Local Council is irw unfriendly,blacken in the oval marked Et since E is closest to 'Unfriendly'.If you don't know, blacken in the oval marked C. If you thinkyour Local Council is friendly, but not sox= friendly, chooseB, and if you think it is unfriendly, but no mu unfriendly,blacken in D.
Now turn over to the next page. Read through each statement,then mark your answer card to show how you think ibout yourLocal Council.
