My Class Questionnaire Test - Description and methodology of the test
Students who want to understand how their class feels from within can use the My Class Questionnaire Test as a starting point for interpreting a shared experience. The result gives a class discussion structure and helps participants notice patterns, concerns, and questions worth exploring together. As a practical classroom questionnaire, it organizes perceptions without evaluating one child.
What This Assessment Measures
This assessment views the class as a social group rather than a set of isolated individual traits. As a classroom climate questionnaire, it focuses on how students perceive friendship, support, enjoyment, disagreement, and the general atmosphere of shared school life. The displayed dimensions are:
- Degree of Cohesion (5-15) reflects unity and mutual support; bands are Low cohesion 5-8, Moderate cohesion 9-12, and High cohesion 13-15.
- Level of Conflict (5-15) reflects tension and disputes; bands are Low conflict 5-8, Moderate conflict 9-12, and High conflict 13-15.
- Satisfaction Level (5-15) reflects students’ positive or negative view of the atmosphere and relationships; bands are Low satisfaction 5-8, Moderate satisfaction 9-11, and High satisfaction 12-15.
Together, these dimensions show whether the group feels connected, troubled, or positively experienced overall.
Methodology and Evidence Base
The method is a brief self-report approach to classroom environment. Items use short statements about enjoyment, friendship, arguments, fighting, not being friends, unhappiness, and insistence on having one’s way. Respondents choose Yes, No, or Not sure / Prefer not to answer, allowing uncertainty when the situation is unclear.
The displayed result combines the response pattern into three separate scores, but the answer labels alone do not define the scoring key.
Conceptually, the closest published reference is My Class Inventory (Fisher & Fraser, 1981), which examines classroom environment through related social dimensions. Fraser, Anderson, and Walberg (1982) document MCI versions, while Sink and Spencer (2005) discuss how a short form can support classroom-climate accountability work. This online self-report questionnaire has no documented standardization, norms, item weights, or reverse-scoring procedures; My Class Inventory is a conceptual comparator, not evidence that this version is standardized or validated.
Interpret the scores as a snapshot of perceived group experience, shaped by current events, personal perspective, and willingness to answer openly. As a questionnaire about the class as a group, it can guide discussion and observation, but cannot by itself establish a diagnosis.
