【摘要】：ACT是美国重要的大学入学考试之一,经历了五十多年的发展演变。通过对搜集的一手文献资料进行归纳分析发现,作为一种适用范围广泛的大规模入学考试,ACT的产生与发展是美国教育发展到一定阶段的产物,它的产生原因、功能发挥、改革历程、招生管理对完善我国高校招生考试制度有着重要的借鉴意义。 ACT五十多年的演变历程遵循了一条“自下而上”的路线,前三十年考试本身经历的变化极小,其变化主要体现在组织管理机构不断细化,为学生提供的考试服务不断完善；后二十多年考试的变革主要体现在内容结构、试题难度及考试题型,根据中学教育的需求进行调整,使得ACT能够为大学、中学及学生提供良好的服务以实现大学入学。此外,ACT的诊断与反馈、指导与预测功能都得到了较为充分的发挥,ACT自身功能的发挥尤其反馈与指导功能的发挥,也有利于ACT的改革适时、稳妥地进行。ACT成绩与SAT成绩都只是美国大学招生综合选拔的参考指标之一。ACT与SAT都是服务于美国教育的大规模考试,筛选、配置合格的学生到不同大学、不同专业是其职责之所在。ACT与SAT由“各自为战”到考试偏向上的一定程度融合,是美国大学入学考试改革的一个重要趋势。本文由绪论、正文和结语组成。绪论包括研究背景、意义和目的；基本概念、研究思路和研究方法；研究现状。正文部分包括三章：第二章主要叙述美国大学入学考试制度的历史演进、分析ACT产生的原因并对1959年ACT首次实施的概况进行必要的介绍；第三章着重梳理ACT在不同历史阶段所进行的改革；第四章从ACT与SAT的差别、覆盖范围与考试偏向、分数换算等角度论述了两者的对应关系并分析了ACT的招考趋势。结语部分是研究的结论、启示以及研究初衷与不足。
