Abstract	This paper draws on theory and research on motivation in education to identify principles that might guide decision making concerning National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) assessments for twelfth graders. It draws on three areas of motivation theory, identifies motivational issues that make twelfth-grade NAEP assessments problematic, and suggests relevant motivation principles that have implications for decision making. The implications section takes two approaches, first making the case for not testing twelfth graders, and second suggesting strategies that might be employed to help address the challenges involved in twelfth-grade NAEP.
