This is the container for the set of results that can be reported using the QTI data structures. A result instance can contain information about a single AssessmentTest and one or more AssessmentItems.
The CandidateResponse complexType is the container for the response(s) given by the candidate.
This supples the conext informaion for the result information. Each result report has its own identifier. The session identifier during which the results were generated is also supplied.
The CorrectResponse complexType is the container for information about the correct response for an interaction. A response declaration may assign an optional 'correctResponse'. This value may indicate the only possible value of the response variable to be considered correct or merely just a correct value. For responses that are being measured against a more complex scale than correct/incorrect this value should be set to the (or an) optimal value. Finally, for responses for hwich no such optimal value is defined the 'correctResponse' must be omitted. If a delivery system supports the display of a solution then it should display the correct values of responses (where defined) to the candidate's own responses (which may be hidden completely if necessary).
This is the container for the results for an AssessmentItem. The result report consists of the information for the associated set of response varables, template variables and outcome variables. Any associated candidate comments are also stored. The report is date stamped.
The OutcomeVariable complexType is the container for the definition of an outcome variable. Outcome variables are declared by outcome declarations. Their value is set either from a default given in the declaration itself or by a responseRule during responseProcessing.Items that declare a numeric outcome variable representing the candidate's overall performance on the item should use the outcome name 'SCORE' for the variable.Items that declare a maximum score (in multiple response choice interactions, for example) can do so by declaring the 'MAXSCORE' variable.Items or tests that want to make the fact that the candidate scored above a predefined treshold available as a variable can use the 'PASSED' variable.
The ResponseVariable complexType is the container for the definition of a response variable. Response variables are declared by response declarations and bound to interactions in the itemBody. Each response variable declared may be bound to one and only one interaction.
The TemplateVariable complexType contains the value(s) of a template variable.
This is the container for the results for a single AssessmentTest. The result report consists of the information for the associated set of response varables, template variables and outcome variables. The report is date stamped.
The identifier for the session during which the associated results were generated.
Comment TBA.
