Which of the following is NOT a public law concerning testing practices?

No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act of 2001
Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA)
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA)

The correct answer is: Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA)

The Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA) primarily focuses on providing financial assistance to states for the development of programs designed to address child abuse and neglect. While it certainly plays a crucial role in the welfare of children, it does not specifically address testing practices in the education or mental health domains. In contrast, the No Child Left Behind Act relates directly to educational testing and accountability measures in public schools to ensure all students achieve proficiency. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act protects the privacy of student education records, thereby influencing how testing information is managed and shared. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act addresses privacy and security of health information, including certain mental health records, which can also intersect with testing practices in the healthcare and counseling sectors. Thus, CAPTA does not pertain to public laws regarding testing practices, making it the correct response to the question posed.
