Details
Numeric variables provided are:
-
Average_percentage_score
Average direct score (percentage of sufficient tests) -
Std_dev_percentage_score
Standard deviation of the direct score -
WLE_average_score
Average WLE score. The WLE score is calculated through the Rasch's psychometric model and is suitable for middle and high schools in that it is cleaned from the effect of cheating (which would affect both the average score and the score variability). By construction it has a mean around 200 points. -
Std_dev_WLE_score
Standard deviation of the WLE score. By construction it ranges around 40 points at the school level. -
Students_coverage
Students coverage percentage
Additional numeric variables, not always available for all observational units, are:
Mean and SD of ESCS indicator

First-Fifth_Level
