CITO score

The CITO-test is a standardized test for educational achievement that is administered in the final grade (when children are 11 or 12 years old) of elementary school. The CITO-test consists of multiple choice items in 4 different educational skills, namely Arithmetic, Language, Study Skills, and Science and Social Studies. All scores on the scales are standardized to percentile scores to correct for differences in the number of items across the years. The first 3 test scales are combined to a standardized Total score (also called CITO final test score), which is standardized on scale from 500 to 550.

In L-CID, the CITO Score questionnaire was a parent-report consisting of 14 tems and subitems that assess children's education level advice from both teachers and from the test (e.g., CITO, Route 8) taken during the final year of elementary school.
