Which one is not a part of the CRAAP test?

Question

Starting with a quick overview of the CRAAP components helps set the stage for evaluating each option.
Option 1: Currency. In CRAAP, Currency refers to how up-to-date the information is. This is indeed a core component, so this option is consistent with the test and should be considered part of the framework.
Option 2: Purpose. The Purpose criterion examines the aim of the source and potential biases. This is another fundamental element of CRAAP, so this option is also part of the framework.
Option 3: Accuracy. Accuracy assesses the reliability and correctness of the information. This is clearly one of the five CRAAP factors, so this option correctly belongs to the test.
Option 4: Author. Here we encounter a subtle wording issue. The CRAAP test uses Authority as a category, which concerns the trustworthiness and qualifications of the source’s creator or publisher. The term "Author" is not listed as a separate criterion in the standard CRAAP framework, and in practice the factor is covered under Authority rather than by a standalone "Author" category. Therefore this option is not part of the CRAAP test as commonly defined.
In summary, Currency, Purpose, and Accuracy are explicitly included in CRAAP, while the term "Author" does not appear as a separate criterion; its idea is encompassed under Authority. This makes Option 4 the mismatch among the listed choices.
