| 1. | In general , the tests work most effectively when qualities to be measured can be most precisely defined and least effectively when what is to be measurede or predicted can not be well defined
一般情况下，当所要测定的特征能够最为精确的定义时，测试的效果最有效，当所要测定的或者预测的特征不能够最为精确的定义时，测试的效果最差。 |
| 2. | In general , the tests work most effectively when the qualities to be measured can be most precisely defined and least effectively when what is to be measured or predicted cannot be well defined
参考译文：一般来讲，当被测评的特点能够最精确地确定的时候，测试会最有效；当所评测的或者预测的不能被很好确定下来的时候，测试的效果最小。 |
| 3. | In general , the tests work most effectively when the qualities to be measured can be most precisely defined and least effectively when what is to be measured or predicted can not be well defined
因此，在某一特定情况下，究竟是采用测试还是其他种类的信息，或是两者兼用，须凭有关相对效度的经验依据而定，也取决于诸如费用和有无来源等因素。 |
| 4. | In general , the tests work most effectively when the qualities to be measured can be most precisely defined and least effectively when what is to be measured or predicted can not be well defined
参考译文：把标准化测试作为批判目标是错误的，因为在抨击这类测试时，批评者没有注意到其弊病来自（测试）使用者对不甚了解或者使用不当（没有能力使用） 。 |
| 5. | In general , the tests work most effectively when the qualities to be measured can be most precisely defined and least effectively when what is to be measured or predicted can not be well defined
完整的译文：因此，在某一特定情况下，究竟是采用测试还是其他种类的信息，或是两者兼用，须凭有关相对效度的经验依据而定，也取决于诸如费用和有无来源等因素。 |
| 6. | In general , the tests work most effectively when the qualities to be measured can be most precisely defined and least effectively when what is to be measured or predicted can not be well defined
总而言之，如果需要测定的人的素质能够精确地界定出来，那些测试就能有效地发挥作用，而如果那些需要测定或预测的素质不能清楚地界定出来，那些测试就没有什么效果。 |
