Correct Answer - Option 1 : Power test
A power test is one that has a generous time limit so that most examinees are able to attempt every item. Usually, such tests have items that are generally arranged in increasing order of difficulties. In many intelligence tests, there are certain items that are too difficult for anyone to solve, for example; Raven’s progressive matrices.
NOTE:
-
Speed test are timed tests that is they examine the subject’s speed of responding within the stipulated period of time. Test items in a speed test are of uniform difficulty but the time limit is such that no examinee can attempt all the items (Chadha 1996). A pure speed test is a test composed of items so easy that the subject never gives a wrong answer and his score is equal to the number of questions attempted by him for example the clinical speed and accuracy test.
-
Performance Test are those that require the examinees to perform a task rather than answer some questions. Such a test prohibits the use of language in items. Occasionally oral language is used to give instruction or the instruction may also be given through gesture and pantomime.
Hence, the above statement is about power test.
