Score reporting
and test design data
Scores are given as percent correct — guidelines simply state that children with high scores should be considered to be phonemically aware, and children with low scores need phonemic awareness instruction. Reliability measures were found to be above .85; predictive validity was determined by assessing reading achievement of students in a longitudinal study (7 years) using the Comprehensive Test of Basic Skills as a measure of reading achievement.
Notes This is a quick, inexpensive test of phonemic segmentation ability. It is available for free download from http://www.balancedreading.com/assessment/freeassessments.html
