Peltier, Corey; Vannest, Kimberly J.; Tomaszewski, Brianne R.; Morin, Kristi; Sallese, Mary Rose; Pulos, Joshua M. – Exceptionality, 2022
The current study examined the criterion validity of a computer adaptive universal screener with an end-of-year state mathematics assessment using extant data provided by a local education agency. Participants included 1,195 third through eighth graders. Correlational analyses were used to report predictive and concurrent validity coefficients for…

Ochs, Sarah; Keller-Margulis, Milena A.; Santi, Kristi L.; Jones, John H. – Assessment for Effective Intervention, 2020
Universal screening is the first mechanism by which students are identified as at risk of failure in the context of multitiered systems of supports. This study examined the validity and diagnostic accuracy of a reading computer-adaptive test as a screener to identify state achievement test performance for third through fifth graders (N = 1,696).…

Shapiro, Edward S.; Dennis, Minyi Shih; Fu, Qiong – School Psychology Quarterly, 2015
The purpose of the study was to compare the use of a Computer Adaptive Test and Curriculum-Based Measurement in the assessment of mathematics. This study also investigated the degree to which slope or rate of change predicted student outcomes on the annual state assessment of mathematics above and beyond scores of single point screening…
