O'Keeffe, Breda V.; Bundock, Kaitlin; Kladis, Kristin; Nelson, Kat – Assessment for Effective Intervention, 2023
Kindergarten reading screening measures typically identify many students as at risk who later meet criteria on important outcome measures (i.e., false positives). To address this issue, we evaluated a gated screening process that included accelerated progress monitoring, followed by a simple goal/reward procedure (skill vs. performance assessment,…
