Proposed adaptations to PISA 2025 international source questionnaires
The final national field trial questionnaires for the United States are not currently available and will be
provided in the updated package in December 2023. The international translation and adaptation
activities have begun for the PISA 2025 round. This package provides the current U.S. versions of the
questionnaires. There are three general types of adaptations:
1.
Deleting items that are problematic to field in the U.S. or which are not germane to the U.S. data
collection. Examples of deleted questions from previous rounds are items pertaining to the
innovative domain, in which the U.S. did not participate.
The following questions are deleted from the Student Questionnaire:

Dear ,
Thank you for participating in this study. This questionnaire asks for information about:
•
•
•
•
•
•
School background information
School management
Teaching staff
Assessment and evaluation
Targeted groups
School climate
This information will help illustrate the similarities and differences between groups of schools in
order to better establish the context for students’ test results. For example, the information
provided may help to establish what effect the availability of resources may have on student
achievement – both within and between countries.
The questionnaire should be completed by the principal or designate. It should take about 45
minutes to complete.
For some questions specific expertise may be needed. You may consult experts to help you
answer these questions.
If you do not know an answer precisely, your best estimate will be adequate for the purpose of
the study.
Please note that the forward button used to proceed to the next question is located at the bottom
right hand corner of your screen. In some instances you may need to scroll down to the bottom of
your screen to access this forward button.
Your answers will be kept confidential. They will be combined with answers from other
principals to calculate totals and averages in which no school can be identified.

their education.
"Socioeconomically disadvantaged homes" refers to homes lacking the basic necessities
of life, such as adequate housing, nutrition or medical care.
"Students who are immigrants" are those who were born outside the country with a
citizenship of a different country.
"Students who have parents who have immigrated" are those who have at least one
parent who was born outside the country with a citizenship of a different country.

refuge from war, political oppression, religious persecution, or a natural disaster.

interest in this question for the Foreign Language Assessment, countries are recommended to
ensure that the languages spoken at home are identified for as many students as possible. So,
we recommend including all languages that are expected to be spoken by at least 1% of students.
In addition, countries should ensure that all answer options (checkbox vertical list) from PISA2018

other languages explicitly listed among the answer options of this question. should be replaced with the actual name of the grade attended by most

Question notes: The parent/guardian terminology is used in PISA to capture modern living
arrangements that do not conform with the mother/father dualism (eg, having same-sex
parents), but also that consider living in extended families (eg, with grandparents) where
other people may have a role in taking care and raising the student (eg, siblings of adult age,
grandparents) and, therefore, influence her or his laerning environment.

Question notes: In response to stakeholder feedback, we have proposed the modification of
the response options. We have added “I attended but do not remember when I
started”, "I do not know if I attended ". We believe this will address the information
required to dissagregate the information, but it does introduce a higher reading load.
The questionnaire framework includes this note:
Question for Core 1: In PISA 2018 there were issues in the design of the question of attendance
of ISCED 0: response categories “I didn’t attend” and “I don’t remember” were conflated. This
made it impossible to measure trends. Can we separate into 2 items: i) Did you attend ISCED 0
(yes/no), ii) For how long did you attend ISCED 0? (I don’t remember)? Or go back to previous
way of asking?

What I learn in school encourages
me to positively impact national

I have learned in school that
when I use more energy at home,
I might be contributing to global
climate change
I have learned in school that most
plastic bags do not biodegrade
and instead they break into
smaller parts and enter the food
chain
I take part in activities organized
by the school to help improve the
living conditions of others (e.g.,
those affected by drought,
wildfires, or food shortages)
As a result of what I have learned
in school, I have become more

Imagine a 10-point scale that represents how much effort you invest
in something.
The highest value (10) marks a situation where you tried your very
best and put as much effort as possible to do well.
The lowest value (1) marks a situation where you did not try hard at
all and put the lowest possible effort to do well.
Now think about the effort you put into completing the
PISA test and questionnaire.

I plan my approach to studying.
In order to identify gaps in my
knowledge, I make a summary of
the most important points without
using my documents.
I ask myself questions about the
material to check if I have
understood everything.
I change my learning plans when I
realize that they cannot be
implemented.
If I notice that my approach to
studying is not successful, I change
it.
