Mr. [redacted] agreed to participate in a Research assessment test of adult basic skills called the Test of Adult Basic Education...

(TABE). The Data Recognition Corporation, DRC-CTB are the sponsors of the Research Test and the corporation that pays individuals who take the test. Mr. [redacted] agreed to take six tests for three to four hours per test. The tests were given on the computer and in booklet form. The tests were Reading, Math, and Language. He took each of the three tests on the computer and in booklet form. He did not follow instructions. He completed the Reading and math tests by computer and booklet form in one hour or less. Mr. [redacted] cheated by taking a Reading and Math test that require at least three to four hours to complete in one hour or less. He did this five times. He did not complete the Language test on the computer. Mr. [redacted] was responsible for reviewing his answers before he ended his Language test. As a result, his tests were reviewed by the research group for usability, and his payment was delayed because of the extra review involved. Mr. [redacted] was told this information each time he called for eight weeks two and three times a week. Additionally, Mr. [redacted] was told that the researchers needed more time to get out the gift cards because they had tested 15,000 students. The DRC-CTB honored their side of the agreement, and they paid Mr. [redacted] for the test results that they received. Mr. [redacted]'s visa gift card arrived on Friday, May 13, 2014. I called the last phone number he provided to me (he changed phone numbers three times), and I left a message for him to call back, and I we could schedule a time for him to come in and pickup his visa gift card payment for the two tests that he completed. I also sent him an email message as well. I have not heard from Mr. [redacted] as of this date, May 16, 2016. Below is information that confirms my side of the story which was sent by email on 4/4/16.
"I submitted your site payday sheet on 3/25, 4/1, and will again on 4/8. It is taking much longer than was anticipated for the research staff to match up data, due to a lack of people with corporate access to the data and authority to approve payments. Please assure your students they will be paid, but the two week timeframe that worked during our previous field study with 2400 participants is not realistic with 15,000 student tests, and management now realizes that, and is working to get the managers at the top to work overtime to address this backlog. Sent from: JB Sample Acquisition Research Associate." (2)Sent on 4/8/16, Good Afternoon, We hope your testing is going well! As students complete the DRC Adult Education Field Test, data from the tests is becoming available to us. We continue to verify each participant's testing completion status, and gift cards are being distributed upon confirmation by our validation group. Payment for your students is one of our top priorities. Part of this process involves activities such as verifying that students have completed all sections of the test in accordance with written and spoken instructions, that they have spent ample time taking the test, and that they have answered all of the items. We are finding some issues here that we'd like to share. For example, some completed tests show inadequate time spent testing (a 3-hour reading assessment may be reported with a total duration of less than a half hour for some students). Any time we find an issue, we are required to follow up with the site. This can impact payment to students and test sites. From: JS Sample Acquisition Research Associate. I can supply further information upon request.
