Wordsum
Wordsum is a 10-item
behavioral sciences.[2] It is taken by about 1,000 people in each year in which it is included as part of the GSS.[3] Its administration involves showing respondents a card containing 10 words, and then asking them to find the synonym for each of them out of a set of five choices.[citation needed] Although most researchers have implicitly assumed that each item on the test deserves equal weight, its validity can be improved by considering the variance for each word separately.[4]
