Direct linkKlingbeil, David A.; Van Norman, Ethan R.; Nelson, Peter M. – Assessment for Effective Intervention, 2021
This direct replication study compared the use of dichotomized likelihood ratios and interval likelihood ratios, derived using a prior sample of students, for predicting math risk in middle school. Data from the prior year state test and the Measures of Academic Progress were analyzed to evaluate differences in the efficiency and diagnostic…

Nelson, Peter M.; Pulles, Sandra M.; Parker, David C.; Klaft, Jenna – School Psychology, 2020
Although it is common for researchers to assess implementation fidelity (IF) within the context of math intervention, IF assessments are often restricted to intervention adherence. Further, the degree to which IF influences observed outcomes is commonly ignored. The current study examined the relationship between three aspects of IF and the math…

Nelson, Peter M.; Christ, Theodore J. – School Psychology Quarterly, 2016
The current study estimated the reliability and agreement of student ratings of the classroom environment obtained using the Responsive Environmental Assessment for Classroom Teaching (REACT; Christ, Nelson, & Demers, 2012; Nelson, Demers, & Christ, 2014). Coefficient alpha, class-level reliability, and class agreement indices were…

Van Norman, Ethan R.; Nelson, Peter M.; Klingbeil, David A. – School Psychology Quarterly, 2017
Educators need recommendations to improve screening practices without limiting students' instructional opportunities. Repurposing previous years' state test scores has shown promise in identifying at-risk students within multitiered systems of support. However, researchers have not directly compared the diagnostic accuracy of previous years' state…

Nelson, Peter M.; Parker, David C.; Zaslofsky, Anne F. – Assessment for Effective Intervention, 2016
The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the importance of growth in math fact skills within the context of overall math proficiency. Data for 1,493 elementary and middle school students were included for analysis. Regression models were fit to examine the relative value of math fact fluency growth, prior state test performance, and a fall…

Nelson, Peter M.; Van Norman, Ethan R.; Lackner, Stacey K. – School Psychology Review, 2016
The current study explored multiple ways in which middle schools can use and integrate data sources to predict proficiency on future high-stakes state achievement tests. The diagnostic accuracy of (a) prior achievement data, (b) teacher rating scale scores, (c) a composite score combining state test scores and rating scale responses, and (d) two…
