Supervised Test - Psychometric Glossary

Any test that is supervised by a qualified person. The purpose of a supervised test is to ensure that the test procedures are followed, and to eliminate the opportunity for candidates to circumvent test rules. A supervised test is generally considered to offer more accurate test results than one that is unsupervised.
