NAEP Technical DocumentationResponse and Exclusion Rates for Grade 8 Reading in 2003
The following table displays the school- and student-level response and exclusion rates for the grade 8 reading assessment. Various weights were used in the calculation of the rates, as indicated in the column headings of the table.
| Geographic domain | Number of schools in the original sample, rounded | School participation rates (%) before substitution (weighted by base weight and enrollment) | School participation rates (%) before substitution (weighted by base weight only) | School participation rates (%) after substitution (weighted by base weight and enrollment) | School participation rates (%) after substitution (weighted by base weight only) | Number of students sampled, rounded | Weighted percent of students excluded | Weighted student participation rates (%) after make-ups | Weighted percent of assessed students accommodated |
