We continuously research and investigate to improve our assessments and make admissions fairer and more equitable. During the 2022-2023 cycle we ran experiments and analyses to investigate the impact of the video response section on demographic differences and reliability.
Throughout the year, we collected data across all countries, programs, and languages in which the Casper test was conducted. Results from our experiments demonstrate that adding a video response section further reduced demographic differences. This, along with positive findings in applicant interviews and post-test surveys, has shaped our decision that Casper will include a video response section for all applicants.
This video response section makes the test more equitable and gives applicants an additional mode of communication and authentic expression of thought.
