[quote=Anonymous]PP here. I'm not at all being defensive. I think that some PPs were being offensive alleging that bribing is occurring. Let's look at the facts:

This is what it says on the report:

Fact 1: [b]Conversations with Northern Virginia Association of Clinical Psychologists are ongoing and they are working collaboratively with FCPS to ensure integrity of test results.[/b]

If I wasn't told about the suspicion of bribing, I would be taking this statement as what it is- they are ensuring integrity of results. You pretty much would do that with anything. That is standard report lingo. And I'm glad that FCPS does have relationships with other organizations as they should.

And for this statement: 
[b]Because the AAP office had been tracking not only WISC scores but the tester/psychologist who provided the report. They found a high number of WISC scores from a specific tester.[/b]

If I wasn't told about the suspicion of bribing, I would be taking this statement as- Oh, there is a specific tester that is most popular than other testers. Given that the AAP office is only getting results with high WISC scores, one cannot conclude that bribing is even occurring. The data collection is flawed to reach that conclusion. If I was shopping for testers and I can see the popularity of a specific tester based on volume of business, I would look into using this tester.
