Abstract

The current study aimed to build and standardize a test to measure the number sense of first-year middle school pupils in the city of Aflou, where the test was applied to a sample representing the original community, consisting of 710 male and female pupils, who were selected randomly in a multi-stage manner. To answer the study questions, the effectiveness of the test paragraphs was examined and its psychometric properties were verified, and then percentiles were derived as criteria for interpreting the raw scores on the test.


The study yielded the following results:


- The number sense test paragraphs enjoyed a high level of effectiveness.


- The numerical sense test has a single-factor structure, as it measures one trait.


- The test enjoyed psychometric properties that indicate its suitability for use on first-year middle school pupils.
