The central phrase encompasses tools or methods used to assist students in preparing for or predicting their performance on a specific standardized psychology assessment. This might involve practice tests, scoring guides, or even statistical analyses designed to estimate a potential score based on performance in practice scenarios. An example could be a point-based system applied to a practice exam to project the equivalent score on the actual assessment.
The utility of these instruments lies in their ability to provide feedback and direction to students. They offer insights into strengths and weaknesses, allowing for focused study and improved preparation. Historically, such resources were limited to published materials or teacher-created assessments. The increasing availability of digital resources has expanded the range and accessibility of these learning aids, providing more customized and immediate feedback.
