The Report Preview panel provides the ability to change the report layout in the following ways:

  1. Column Order: Allows the option to change the result column order to compare results distributed differently. Use the arrow buttons to change their order, or drag and drop them into a different order. The report sorts according to the column order.
  2. Empty rows: When the [Show] button is selected, rows with no data are included in the report. When the [Hide] button is selected, these empty rows are excluded from the report. In this case, if a report section has only empty rows, the entire section is excluded.
  3. Display value as: Allows the option to change the score level distributions between [Percent] or [Number]
  4. Achievement levels: Choices are either [All] or [Grouped]. If [All] is chosen, all achievement level distributions are displayed in the report. If [Grouped] is chosen, then Achievement Levels below the standard cutoff are combined into one result, labeled Below Standard, and Achievement Levels above the standard cutoff are combined into one result, labeled At or Above Standard (refer to figure 3).
