Zusammenfassungen
Computer-based tests administered in established commercial testing centers typically have used
monitors of uniform size running at a set resolution. Web-based delivery of tests promises to
greatly expand access, but at the price of less standardization in equipment. The current study
evaluated the effects of variations in screen size, screen resolution, and presentation delay on
verbal and mathematics scores in a sample of 357 college-bound high school juniors. The
students were randomly assigned to one of six experimental conditionsthree screen display
conditions crossed with two presentation rate conditions. The three display conditions were:
a 17-inch monitor set to a resolution of 1024 x 768, a 17-inch monitor set to a resolution of
640 x 480, and a 15-inch monitor set to a resolution of 640 x 480. Items were presented either
with no delay or with a five-second delay between questions (to emulate a slow Internet
connection).
No significant effects on math scores were found. Verbal scores were higher, by about a quarter of a standard deviation (28 points on the SAT® scale), with the high-resolution display.
