Processdata and Achievement Levels. Country comparisons. No gender.

Collapsing the lowest two levels

We use four achievement levels here, corresponding to benchmarks: 475, 550, 625. Also, we calculate the mnx as mean of the time spent per item. Here is the sample size of each level in each country.

Outcome “_S”

Here we calculate sum scores across all relevant items.

LIT vs INF items

We have 176 INF items and 172 LIT items.

MC vs CR items
