Abstract	Professor Postman is in agreement with Professor Gagne's view that valid measurement of learning outcomes is an essential part of the evaluation of educational systems. The paper stresses that the categorization of outcomes and measuring operations should be regarded as flexible heuristic devices, and that it is desirable to guard against the risk of standardization. It also discusses the classes of outcomes distinguished in experimental investigation, and focuses on the selection of operations which will both avoid distortion of measurement and distinguish the outcomes under study from the action of other variables.
