Abstract
The concurrent validity of a computer-assisted test construction system designed to measure information in the medical sciences was assessed. Scores on the Quarterly Profile Examination were correlated with scores on the National Board of Medical Examiners, Part I, for four different examination dates at a new medical school. Results were presented for seven categories of the examination. The correlations were, for the most part, significant. A trend of increased relationship for the more recent examination dates was observed. The results were interpreted to indicate that the Quarterly Profile Examination measures factual information in the basic medical sciences.
