Is the Massachusetts Battery appropriate for screening junior and senior high school students?

Yes, it is appropriate
No, it is inappropriate
Only for juniors
Only for seniors

The correct answer is: No, it is inappropriate

The Massachusetts Battery is generally considered inappropriate for screening junior and senior high school students because it was designed with younger children in mind, particularly for preschool and early elementary ages. The developmental and cognitive abilities of older students differ significantly from those of younger children, which means that tests tailored for younger age groups may not provide valid or reliable assessments for adolescents. Using instruments that are not age-appropriate can lead to misleading results and ineffective strategies for addressing any identified issues. In the context of screening, it is essential to use assessments that are specifically designed for the developmental stage of the students being evaluated to ensure that the results are applicable and meaningful.
