Brief experimental analyses (BEA) have been primarily used to evaluate the effects of interventional variables on reading fluency deficits. This study expanded this area of research by examining spelling interventions for students with below grade level spelling achievement. Researchers analyzed interventions addressing motivation, practice…

This study examined whether an artificial intelligence-based automatic speech recognition system can accurately assess students' reading fluency and reading level. Participants were 120 fourth-grade students attending public schools in Türkiye. Students read a grade-level text out loud while their voice was recorded. Two experts and the artificial…

Computerized game-based assessment (GBA) system for screening reading difficulties may provide substantial time and cost benefits over traditional paper-and-pencil assessment while providing means also to individually adapt learning content in educational games. To study the reliability and validity of a GBA system to identify struggling readers…

Intervention researchers often use curriculum-based measurement of reading fluency (CBM-R) with a brief experimental analysis (BEA) to identify an effective intervention for individual students. The current study synthesized data from 22 studies that used CBM-R data within a BEA by computing the standard error of measure (SEM) for the median data…

Identifying low-progress readers easily and quickly is an essential prerequisite for effective literacy intervention in schools. In this study, teacher judgment of reading performance is compared with a curriculum-based measurement procedure. This study involved 33 teachers and their Year 3 to Year 5 classes. Twelve students were randomly selected…

This article presents a fluency-based measure of reading comprehension. A part of the Vitals Indicators of Progress (VIP) system, the measure outlined here represents an alternate form to the retell-fluency measure in the Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy System (DIBELS). Measures of retell fluency provide an efficient, fluency-based tool…
