ABSTRACT A vast literature investigates academic disengagement among students, including its ultimate manifestation, dropping out of school. Research also shows that test disengagement can be a problem for many inferences educators and policymakers wish to draw from test scores. However, few studies consider whether academic and test disengagement are related. In this study, we examine whether behaviors indicative of academic disengagement like chronic absenteeism and course failures are related to behaviors indicative of test disengagement like rapidly guessing on items. We also examine whether social-emotional factors like low academic self-efficacy and self-management, which research suggests are the root causes of academic disengagement, are also related to rapid guessing behavior. Our results provide evidence that academic and test disengagement are related, including through a common association with poor self-management. The implications of this connection for measurement and practice are discussed.

考试和学术脱离相关吗？对测量和实践的影响

摘要大量文献研究了学生退学后的学术脱离，包括其最终表现。研究还表明，考试脱离接触对于许多推论者可能是个问题，教育者和政策制定者希望从考试成绩中吸取教训。但是，很少有研究考虑学术和考试脱离是否相关。在这项研究中，我们检查了表明诸如长期缺勤和课程失败等学术脱离的行为是否与表明测试脱离的行为（如快速猜测项目）是否相关。我们还研究了社会情感因素，例如学业自我效能感和自我管理能力低下，研究表明这是学业脱离的根本原因，也与快速猜测行为有关。我们的结果提供了证据，表明学术和考试的脱离是相关的，包括与不良自我管理的共同关联。讨论了这种连接对测量和实践的影响。
