Abstract
Research aimed at developing and validating an instrument to assess middle school students' perceptions of
assessment was conducted. Following a review of literature, a tentative 6-scale instrument of 48 items was trialled with a sample of 320 students in 7 Australian schools. Based on internal consistency reliability data and
exploratory factor analysis, refinement decisions resulted in a 5-scale instrument called the Student Perceptions
of Assessment Questionnaire (SPAQ). The scales of the SPAQ are Congruence with Planned Learning, Authenticity, Student Consultation, Transparency, and Diversity. A sample of 3,098 students in 150 classrooms was used to validate the final SPAQ.
