GEISINGER IN SUPPORT OF PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT AND ENTRY OF A PERMANENT INJUNCTION I, KURT F. GEISINGER, declare: 1. I am currently Director of the Buros Center on Testing and W. C. Meierhenry Distinguished University Professor at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. I submit this Declaration in support of the motion of the American Educational Research Association, Inc. (“AERA”), the American Psychological Association, Inc. (“APA”), and the National Council on Measurement in Education, Inc. (“NCME”) (collectively, “Plaintiffs” or “Sponsoring Organizations”) for summary judgment and the entry of a permanent injunction. 2. My curriculum vitae is attached to this Declaration as Exhibit 1. 3. I received my doctoral degree in Educational Psychology in 1977 from the Pennsylvania State University, after previously receiving my masters’ degree in Psychology at the University of Georgia and my bachelor’s degree from Davidson College (with honors). I also studied German, Psychology and other topics as an undergraduate at the Phillips Universität in Marburg, Germany and at Harvard University when I attended the Institute for Educational Management in 1995. -1- Case 1:14-cv-00857-TSC Document 60-88 Filed 12/21/15 Page 2 of 48 4. From 2001 to 2006, I served as the Vice President of Academic Affairs and Professor of Psychology at the University of St. Thomas in Houston, Texas, where I was responsible for four academic schools, approximately 200 faculty members, and over 4,000 students. From 1997 to 2001, I served as Academic Vice President and Professor of Psychology at Le Moyne College. From 1992 to 1997 I served as Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences and Professor of Psychology at the State University of New York at Oswego. And, from 19771992 I served as a Professor of Psychology at Fordham University in New York City, where I served as department chair for the Department of Psychology and director of the Doctoral program in Psychometrics. 5. Over the past forty years, I have researched, studied, and taught psychometrics (psychometrics is the quantitative study of tests and measures in terms of the value, usefulness, and interpretation of the results of such measures). I also am a fellow, diplomate, and member of numerous professional societies involving educational and psychological testing, such as the APA (fellow), the American Association for Assessment Psychology (diplomate), the AERA (fellow), and the NCME, as well as other professional associations. I have represented the APA by serving on and chairing the Joint Committee on Testing Practices (which is separate from the APA committee responsible for the 1999 Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing) and have served on the APA’s Committee on Psychological Testing and Assessment. In 2010, I was elected to serve two terms (2006-2008 and 2009-2011) as the representative on the Council of Representatives for the APA’s Division of Evaluation, Measurement and Statistics. My second term was cut short by one year when I was elected to serve as a member-at-large on the APA’s Board of Directors in 2010, a position I held for a three-year term (2011-2013). -2- Case 1:14-cv-00857-TSC Document 60-88 Filed 12/21/15 Page 3 of 48 6. testing. I have authored numerous publications about psychological and educational I have worked at the Educational Testing Service (“ETS”), chaired its Technical Advisory Committee for the Graduate Record Examination (“GRE”), served on the Board of Directors for the GRE (a Board that I also chaired), and have been a member of the College Board, (formerly known as the College Entrance Examination Board) for which I served (20002002) on its SAT Committee. I recently concluded a four-year term (2011-2014) on the Advisory Research Committee for the College Board, serving the last two years as its chair. I currently serve on the Technical Advisory Committee for the Educational Records Bureau 1 and on Saudi Arabia’s International Advisory Board for its National Center for Assessment and Evaluation. 7. In 2010, I was elected to the Council (i.e., Board of Directors) for the International Test Commission—the primary international testing body. In 2012, I was also elected as its Treasurer and to serve on its Executive Council. I am the only American who serves on its Executive Council. 8. I was asked to review and share my comments’ chapters of the 1999 Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing, published jointly by the AERA, the APA, and the NCME (the “1999 Standards”). The Standards 2 embody the professionally accepted practices for testing and measurement. One of the chapters I reviewed was based upon the testing of individuals with disabilities, an area in which I have engaged in research and have served as an expert witness in federal courts as well as state courts in New York, New Jersey, and California. 1 The Educational Record Bureau specializes in the development and use of tests and testing products for private and independent educational institutions at the p-12 levels. 2 I use the term “Standards” to refer to the Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing as a whole, not a specific version of the Standards, i.e. 1999 or 2014 -3- Case 1:14-cv-00857-TSC Document 60-88 Filed 12/21/15 Page 4 of 48 The other chapter related to the rights and responsibilities of test takers. See Exh. 1. I note that the Standards were revised again in 2014. 9. In addition to my 130 plus journal articles and book chapters, I have written, edited, or co-edited approximately 15 books and monographs. The vast majority of these publications deal with testing and measurement issues. For example, I have edited two books on the psychological testing of Hispanics and another I co-edited related to fairness in testing. I have also co-edited several books of reviews of published tests and measures. I was also Editorin-Chief for the three-volume Handbook of Testing and Assessment in Psychology (published by the APA in 2013) and have been editor of the journal Applied Measurement in Education for the past 9 plus years. Taylor & Francis, in conjunction with the Buros Center for Testing publishes this journal. 10. I also co-chaired a sub-committee of the APA’s Joint Committee on Testing Practices and the overall committee itself that developed a document on the rights and responsibilities of test takers (1993-2001). This document has been endorsed by a number of professional associations related to proper test use, including the APA, the National Association of School Psychologists, the American Counseling Association, and the NCME. While chairing the Joint Committee on Testing Practices, the committee developed a book entitled Assessing Individuals with Disabilities, in which I wrote a chapter. I also served on a task force charged to illuminate issues related to the testing of individuals with disabilities as well as ethnic minorities. The task force wrote and edited a book entitled Test Interpretation and Diversity: Achieving Equity in Assessment, which was published by the APA’s publication unit in 1997. I had three chapters in that volume. -4- Case 1:14-cv-00857-TSC Document 60-88 Filed 12/21/15 Page 5 of 48 11. I additionally served on an APA task force (2007-2010) that considered the assessment and intervention of individuals with disabilities. The results of our work, Guidelines for the “Assessment of and Intervention with Individuals with Disabilities,” was published in the American Psychologist, the premier publication of the APA (Geisinger et al., 2012) and endorsed as the policy of the APA by its governance. A reference for the American Psychologist article may be found on my curriculum vitae, which is attached as Exhibit 1. 12. In the past two years (2014-2015), I have served on two task forces related to the use of measures in clinical psychology. One of these has written a policy, recently accepted by the APA’s Board of Directors, that differentiates the use of tests and other measures, for screening and assessment, two highly related types of testing, but which differ in specificity and focus. Tests are usually standardized measures that are given to a number of people for a specific purpose. A bar examination would be an example of a test. Measures are other variables yielding typically quantitative values that are used to evaluate a person and include tests. A bathroom scale results in a measure (weight), but would not normally be considered as a test. 13. During 2013-2014, I served on a committee of the Institute of Medicine (a component of the National Academy of Sciences) that evaluated the use of psychological and clinical neuropsychological measures by the Social Security Administration in determining disability status. The final report, entitled Psychological Testing in the Service of Disability Determination, has been published by the National Academy of Sciences and is also available from the Institute of Medicine’s website. 14. For approximately four years (2008-2012), I jointly represented three professional associations (the AERA, the APA, and the NCME) in developing the International Standards -5- Case 1:14-cv-00857-TSC Document 60-88 Filed 12/21/15 Page 6 of 48 Organization’s (“ISO”) first standard on psychological testing. The results of the work of the committee that engaged in this activity was ISO Standard 10677. The standard is divided into two parts. The first establishes requirements and guidance for a client working with a service provider to carry out the assessment of an individual, a group, or an organization for workrelated purposes. ISO 10667-1:2011 enables the client to base its decisions on sound assessment results. ISO 10667-1:2011 also specifies the responsibilities of a service provider in terms of the assessment methods and procedures that can be carried out for various work-related purposes made by or affecting individuals, groups or organizations. 15. I also built or helped to build a number of testing measures. Specifically, I served as the primary consultant on a number of civil service examinations given in New York City for police officers, sergeants, lieutenants, and captains, fire fighters, fire lieutenants, fire captains, sanitation supervisors, and a variety of other civil service occupations over a period of at least a decade ending in 1992. I sometimes defended these measures in court. I also represented the Public Service Alliance of Canada against the Public Service of Canada in two cases related to their national testing efforts and assisted Disability Rights Advocates with regard to several testing disputes concerning individuals with disabilities. See Exh. 1. 16. In recent years, my primary efforts have been to assure testing fairness for those with disabilities, language minorities, and ethnic minorities. 17. I first learned about the Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing while I was in my first or second year of graduate school. They are widely discussed in classes on testing and testing practice and treated with great respect. Some graduate programs and courses require that students purchase the Standards as part of their coursework and education. In teaching graduate classes on topics related to testing and associated with the Standards, I often -6- Case 1:14-cv-00857-TSC Document 60-88 Filed 12/21/15 Page 7 of 48 refer to them, building the thoughts and approaches described in the Standards, as well as specific standards, into my lectures and classes. I expect students to purchase and read the Standards in a number of the classes I taught. When writing chapters and articles on such topics as test validity, test reliability, and test fairness—all topics I have discussed in writing—I frequently refer to the Standards to check my use of language, my interpretations, and to check that I am not omitting a topic of importance relevant to the specific publication. Also, when building tests, such as the Police and Fire Department Civil Service tests I helped construct for the City of New York, or when serving on technical advisory committees for the well-known SAT and GRE committees and boards, I refer to the Standards frequently. Usually, in meetings I attempt to express what I believed to be best practices, and then would “back up” my beliefs with quotes from the specific and relevant standards. Perhaps my greatest use of the Standards has occurred in my legal defense of specific tests or in my critique of particular uses of some tests, both of which I have engaged in during my career as an expert witness. 18. The ultimate advantages of the Standards in my opinion are that they are written and edited by first-rate professionals covering a number of the representative fields in which testing and assessment are primarily employed, they are thoroughly and publicly vetted by other professionals, and they are openly discussed during the revision process at many professional conferences. The resultant document becomes a living document of best practices. That the members of the committee drafting the Standards are generally extremely highly respected professionals in the field of testing and testing practice also provides the Standards great credibility. Given my experience over the last 10 years as Director of the Buros Center for Testing, thought of by many as the Consumer Reports of the testing industry, and my service as the co-editor of the Mental Measurements Yearbooks, where commercially available tests are -7- Case 1:14-cv-00857-TSC Document 60-88 Filed 12/21/15 Page 8 of 48 evaluated, I can state categorically that the Standards serve as the primary basis for all test evaluations. The other editors of these Yearbooks and I refer to the Standards with great frequency to determine and assure ourselves that the comments made by reviewers are consistent with the Standards and that the reviews themselves are based upon principles supported by, and coherent with, the Standards. The Standards originally were created as principles and guidelines – a set of best practices to improve professional practice in testing and assessment across multiple settings, including education and various areas of psychology. The Standards can and should be used as a recommended course of action in the sound and ethical development and use of tests, and also to evaluate the quality of tests and testing practices. Additionally, an essential component of responsible professional practice is maintaining technical competence. Many professional associations also have developed standards and principles of technical practice in assessment. The Sponsoring Organizations’ Standards have been and still are used for this purpose. 19. The Standards, however, are not simply intended for members of the Sponsoring Organizations: AERA, APA, and NCME. The intended audience of the Standards is broad and cuts across audiences with varying backgrounds and different training. For example, the Standards also are intended to guide test developers, sponsors, publishers, and users by providing criteria for the evaluation of tests, testing practices, and the effects of test use. Test user-oriented standards refer to those standards that help test users decide how to choose certain tests, interpret scores, or make decisions based on test results. Test users include clinical or industrial psychologists, research directors, school psychologists, counselors, employment supervisors, teachers, and various administrators who select or interpret tests for their organizations. There is no mechanism, however, to enforce compliance with the Standards on the part of the test -8- Case 1:14-cv-00857-TSC Document 60-88 Filed 12/21/15 Page 9 of 48 developer or test user. The Standards, moreover, do not attempt to provide psychometric answers to policy or legal questions. They do not themselves set requirements, but serve to distribute best practices and procedures. 20. The Standards apply broadly to a wide range of standardized instruments and procedures that sample an individual’s behavior, including tests, assessments, inventories, scales, and other testing vehicles. The Standards apply equally to standardized multiple-choice tests, performance assessments (including tests comprised of only open-ended essays), and hands-on assessments or simulations. The main exceptions are that the Standards do not apply to unstandardized questionnaires (e.g., unstructured behavioral checklists or observational forms), teacher-made tests, and subjective decision processes (e.g., a teacher’s evaluation of students’ classroom participation over the course of a semester). 21. The Standards have been used to develop testing guidelines for such activities as college admissions, personnel selection, test translations, test user qualifications, and computerbased testing. The Standards also have been widely cited to address technical, professional, and operational norms for all forms of assessments that are professionally developed and used in a variety of settings. The Standards additionally provide a valuable public service to state and federal governments as they voluntarily choose to use them. For instance, each testing company, when submitting proposals for testing administration, instead of relying on a patchwork of local, or even individual and proprietary, testing design and implementation criteria, may rely instead on the Sponsoring Organizations’ Standards to afford the best guidance for testing and assessment practices. 22. The Sponsoring Organizations do not keep any of the revenues generated from the sales of the Standards. Rather, the income from these sales is used by the Sponsoring -9- Case 1:14-cv-00857-TSC Document 60-88 Filed 12/21/15 Page 10 of 48 Organizations to offset their development and production costs and to generate funds for subsequent revisions. This strategy allows the Sponsoring Organizations to develop up-to-date, high quality Standards that otherwise would not be developed due to the time and effort that goes into producing them. 23. Without the sales revenue from prior Standards versions (because – if Public Resource succeeds in this litigation – this publication will be made freely available online), it is extremely unlikely that future updates to the Standards will be undertaken. This well-informed opinion is made because NCME is too small an organization to financially support periodic updates of the Standards, AERA does not have the budget for it, and an insufficient number of psychometricians are members of APA for it to justify the ongoing expenditures. Charging extra membership fees to fund ongoing updates to the Standards would never happen, because the governing bodies of AERA, APA and NCME would not vote for it. If these Sponsoring Organizations ceased updating the Standards, it is unlikely that other organizations would step in and continue the effort. Moreover, there are no other organizations with the expertise in their memberships to populate such a committee or task force. 24. There simply is no way for Plaintiffs to calculate with any degree of certainty the number of university/college professors, students, testing companies and others who would have purchased Plaintiffs’ Standards but for their wholesale posting on Defendant’s https://law.resource.org website and the Internet Archive http://archive.org website. 25. In Fiscal Year (“FY”) 2011 to FY 2012, as compared to FY 2011, the Sponsoring Organizations experienced a 34% drop in sales of the 1999 Standards. In FY 2013, sales of the 1999 Standards remained at their low level from the prior fiscal year (See F. Levine Declaration, ¶ 18, Exh. OOO). For a publication with the longevity of the 1999 Standards, one otherwise -10- Case 1:14-cv-00857-TSC Document 60-88 Filed 12/21/15 Page 11 of 48 would expect to see a gradual decline in sales year-over-year; not the precipitous drop in sales experienced by the 1999 Standards in 2012 and 2013 - even considering that updated Standards were published in 2014. It is also clear that this drop did not occur due to the expected publication of the 2014 Standards, because they were actually due to be published more than a year earlier. Thus, one would have expected such a drop to occur perhaps in 2010 or 2011. 26. Past harm from Public Resource’s infringing activities includes misuse of Plaintiffs’ intellectual property without permission, lost sales that cannot be totally accounted for – due to potentially infinite Internet distribution, especially by psychometrics students, and lack of funding that otherwise would have been available for the update of the Sponsoring Organizations’ Standards from the 1999 to the 2014 versions. 27. Should Public Resource’s infringement be allowed to continue, the harm to the Sponsoring Organizations, and public at large who rely on the preparation and administration of valid, fair and reliable tests, includes: (i) uncontrolled publication of the 1999 Standards without any notice that those guidelines have been replaced by the 2014 Standards; (ii) future unquantifiable loss of revenue from sales of authorized copies of the 1999 Standards (with proper notice that they are no longer the current version) and the 2014 Standards; and (iii) lack of funding for future revisions of the 2014 Standards and beyond. 28. The harm caused to the public by publication of out-of-date Standards (not labeled as such) will be significant, because the testing and assessment fields are constantly changing, given updates in testing technology and ever-evolving collective thought on the validity, reliability and fairness of tests. Members of the public who would be harmed by discontinued updates of the Standards include psychometrics professors, students and professionals, as well as test developers, administrators and takers. -11- Case 1:14-cv-00857-TSC Document 60-88 Filed 12/21/15 Page 12 of 48 Case 1:14-cv-00857-TSC Document 60-88 Filed 12/21/15 Page 13 of 48 EXHIBIT 1 Updated 12/1/2014 CURRICULUM VITAE Kurt F.

Provide guidance with regard to the passing score for some certification examinations. Prior to 1995 Prior to 1992, I was engaged in considerable consultation with a variety of states, municipalities, and unions. This consultation generally concerned test development and often involved my leading major test construction projects in civil service, industrial, and educational testing. I gained considerable understanding of the functioning of organizations in so doing. For approximately 10 years from the early 1980s through the 1990s, I was the primary consultant to New York City Department of Personnel building and defending in court Police Officer and Fire Fighter Examinations. This involved examinations for the entry-level positions as well as all levels of promotion including for police service of Sergeant, Lieutenant, and Captain for the New York City Police Department, the Transit Police and the Housing Police. It also included working with all ranks in the Fire Department, through Chief of the Department, as well as positions in Sanitation (entry-level and promotional), Social Services, Parks and Recreation, and Health Services. I built the examination used for the hiring of Test and Measurement Specialists in the New York City. I served as an expert witness (working with the New York City Department of Law) in a number of cases defending New York City personnel examinations and in one case, against the examination for Parks and Recreation Worker. I served as an expert witness and consultant to the Public Service Alliance of Canada, the union of federal employees in Canada, in cases against three tests, a Canadian Intelligence Test, a Canadian Customs Officer Supervisor Test, and a Office Manager Test. Together with Dr. Richard R. Reilly of Assessment Alternatives, I performed job analyses for the New Jersey Civil Service Commission of a number of police positions. While in graduate school at the Pennsylvania State University, for almost two years I directed a court-ordered study that ultimately brought women onto the police force in the City of Philadelphia. Prior to and during this study, I went through various aspects of police training, worked closely with uniformed police representatives of the department, developed rating scales for the evaluation of police officers. As stated above, this was a full-time position for approximately 1.5 years with Bartell Associates, of State College, Pennsylvania.
