We compare poor-performing and normal-performing decoders' processing times on real words, pseudo-homophones, and nonwords (Study 1), and evaluate how a processing time difference is associated with rates of decoding development (Study 2). Over 800 sixth and seventh graders took an online reading component battery, which included a decoding test,…

Wang, Zuowei; Sabatini, John; O'Reilly, Tenaha; Weeks, Jonathan – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2019
We report results of 2 studies examining the relation between decoding and reading comprehension. Based on our analysis of prominent reading theories such as the Simple View of Reading (Gough & Tunmer, 1986), the Lexical Quality Hypothesis (Perfetti & Hart, 2002) and the Self-Teaching Hypothesis (Share, 1995), we propose the Decoding…

Madnani, Nitin; Burstein, Jill; Sabatini, John; O'Reilly, Tenaha – Grantee Submission, 2013
We introduce a cognitive framework for measuring reading comprehension that includes the use of novel summary-writing tasks. We derive NLP features from the holistic rubric used to score the summaries written by students for such tasks and use them to design a preliminary, automated scoring system. Our results show that the automated approach…

Hemphill, Lowry; Kim, James; Yudron, Monica; LaRusso, Maria; Donovan, Suzanne; Sabatini, John; O'Reilly, Tenaha – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2015
The roughly one-quarter of U.S. eighth graders who score below basic on national assessments of reading are poorly equipped for the reading demands of secondary school. They struggle with summarizing and making text-based inferences (NCES, 2013). Intervention in middle school needs to be comprehensive, both because of the heterogeneity of the…

Sabatini, John; Bruce, Kelly; Steinberg, Jonathan; Weeks, Jonathan – ETS Research Report Series, 2015
This technical report describes the conceptual foundation and measurement properties of the Reading Inventory and Scholastic Evaluation (RISE). The RISE is a 6-subtest, Web-administered reading skills components battery. The theoretical and empirical foundations of each subtest in the battery are reviewed, as well as item designs. The results…
