TIMSS uses four international benchmarks for describing student achievement: Low, Intermediate, High, and Advanced. In this study, we linked the eighth-grade Math TIMSS and NAEP scales using equipercentile equating to (a) help better interpret U.S. eighth-grade students’ performance on TIMSS, and (b) investigate the progress of eighth-grade U.S. students over time relative to the progress of students in other countries. Results indicated that relative to other countries, U.S. eighthgrade students increased with respect to the “At or Above Basic” NAEP Achievement level, but that other countries saw larger improvements in the higher achievement level categories, relative to the US. This finding may reflect the emphasis of No Child Left Behind on raising lower achievement to “proficient.” However, with respect to“Advanced” mathematics achievement, eighth-grade U.S. students showed less  \nimprovement than students in other countries.  \nKeywords: achievement levels, equipercentile equating, international assessment, linking, NAEP, TIMSS  \nLa vinculación de las evaluaciones TIMSS y NAEP para evaluar las tendencias internacionales en el logro  \nResumen: Las Tendencias en Matemáticas Internacionales y Estudios Ciencias (TIMSS) lepermite comparar el rendimiento de los estudiantes en los EE.UU. en Matemáticas y Ciencia con el rendimiento de otros estudiantes de los países. El TIMSS utiliza cuatro puntos de referencia internacionales para describir el rendimiento del estudiante: bajo, intermedio y avanzado de alta. En este estudio, asociamos las escalas de TIMSS matemáticas y NAEP dadas en octavo grado utilizando equipercentile equivalente a (a) ayuda a interpretar mejor el rendimiento de octavo grado en el TIMSS, y (b) para investigarel progreso de los estudiantes de 8º grado en los Estados Unidos en el tiempo sobre el progreso de los estudiantes de otros países. Los resultados indicaron que, en comparacióncon otros países, los estudiantes de 8º grado de Estados Unidos aumentaron desde el nivel“igual o superior al básico” NAEP logro, pero otros países marcaron la mayor mejora en la mayoría de las categorías de nivel de rendimiento en los EE.UU.. Este hallazgo puede reflejar el énfasis de No Child Left Behind (NCLB) para elevar el rendimiento más bajo de\"competente\" . Sin embargo, en cuanto a rendimiento en matemáticas “avanzada”, los estudiantes estadounidenses de octavo grado mostraron menor mejoría de los estudiantes de otros países.  \nPalabras-clave: niveles de rendimiento, equipercentile equivalente, evaluación internacional, vinculación, NAEP, TIMSS  \nVinculando avaliações TIMSS e NAEP para avaliar tendências internacionais em realizações  \nResumo: As Tendências em Matemática Internacional e Estudos em Ciências (TIMSS) permite comparar o desempenho dos estudantes nos EUA em Matemática e Ciência com odesempenho de alunos de outros países.
