These items were assembled into a questionnaire which was developed by Gavin T L Brown and Zhenlin Wang at the Hong Kong Institute of Education from 2010-2011. The items were developed from a focus group study (Brown & Wang, 2013; Wang & Brown, 2014), previous SCoA studies (Brown, 2011), and previous work on Chinese teachers’ conceptions of assessment (Brown, Hui, Yu, & Kennedy, 2011). The items in this list were selected after administration of the survey in China and Hong Kong (Brown & Wang, 2016). The questionnaire has been used subsequently with different factor structure results (Chen & Brown, 2016).
