夏威夷州拥有语言和文化多样化的人口，他们承认夏威夷语和英语为官方语言。夏威夷州与当地社区合作，设立了夏威夷语浸入式课程（Ka Papahana Kaiapuni Hawai 'i），以支持和促进对夏威夷语言、文化和历史的研究。Kaiapuni学生在历史上是被边缘化的考生，他们被评估时使用的工具在文化和语言上不敏感，包含与构念无关的方差，或者心理测量特性不充分（美国教育部，2006;Kaawaloa, 2014）。作为回应，夏威夷州教育部和夏威夷大学制定了凯亚普尼教育成果评估（KĀ夏威夷大学教育成果评估），让凯亚普尼学生参与技术上严格的本土语言评估。本文详细介绍了KĀ oi项目的理论框架，其中包括构建内容和构建支持评估用于问责制的有效性的传统有效性研究。然而，KĀ夏威夷EO团队认识到需要更多的证据，因为KĀ夏威夷EO的行动理论是基于社区使用评估分数来促进文化和语言复兴的原则。本文提供了一个有效性研究的例子，该团队进行了有效性研究，以建立支持文化和内容有效性的证据。
The state of Hawai‘i has a linguistically and culturally diverse population that recognizes Hawaiian and English as official languages. Working with the community, the state established the Hawaiian Language Immersion Program, Ka Papahana Kaiapuni Hawai‘i (Kaiapuni), to support and promote the study of Hawaiian language, culture, and history. Kaiapuni students are historically marginalized test-takers and had been assessed using instruments that were culturally and linguistically insensitive, contained construct irrelevant variance, or had inadequate psychometric properties (U. S. Department of Education, 2006; Kaawaloa, 2014). In response, the Hawai‘i State Department of Education and the University of Hawai‘i developed the Kaiapuni Assessment of Educational Outcomes (KĀʻEO), which engages Kaiapuni students in technically rigorous, Native language assessments. This article details the theoretical framework of the KĀʻEO program, which includes traditional validity studies to build content and construct validity that support the assessment’s use for accountability. However, the KĀʻEO team recognized that additional evidence was needed because the KĀʻEO theory of action is grounded in principles of community use of assessment scores to advance cultural and language revitalization. The article provides an example of one of the validity studies that the team conducted to build evidence in support of cultural and content validity.
