Achievement Levels of Prepositions for High School Students and Evaluation
Get PDFapplication/pdfA large number of high school students seem to have difficulty with prepositions. Does the difficulty vary among prepositions in their basic use?

It was also found that the results of the tests changed depending on the kind of tests, which led to some thoughts on test making
