These maxims are used to guide all aspects of the test design and delivery decision-making
process. For example, we adhere to Maxim 1 by following a model for test development and
validation which is based on a rational and explicit approach (see Section 3.4). Under
Maxim 2, we recognise that stakeholders are also participants in the assessment process, and
therefore, need support. This is an important aspect of the approach because examination
systems only function effectively if all stakeholders collaborate to achieve the intended
outcomes. In accordance with Maxim 3, we endeavour to provide accurate, comprehensive
and comprehensible information about its tests (see Section 2). Various kinds of impact are
anticipated at the design and development stages, and we put procedures into place when
an examination becomes operational to collect relevant data and carry out routine analyses
(Maxim 4). This information also allows us to monitor both the anticipated and unanticipated
effects of our exams.
