Redefining specific learning disabilities
A Comparison of Special Education Students’ Triennial Norm-Referenced Academic Achievement Before and During Covid-19
Despite growing evidence for learning loss due to COVID-19, there is little research examining this phenomenon using norm-referenced tests (NRTs) or with special educations students. Using a repeated-measures design with 96 fourth- through 12th-grade students previously identified as eligible for special education services, the present study attempted to measure learning loss using W Difference scores gathered from triennial evaluations using the…
Evaluating the treatment utility of the Cognitive Assessment System
Rewatching with the Gilmore Guys
This article considers Gilmore Guys to be an urtext of rewatch podcasts and uses fan survey responses to situate rewatch podcasts within a set of emerging consumption practices and industrial conditions that blur the lines between television and podcasting, old and new media, and network-era and post-network-era consumption practices. I expand upon Rebecca Williams’s notion of post-object fandom by suggesting that these podcasts restore the ontol…
Romantic Duration, Relationship Quality, and Attachment Insecurity among Dating Couples
For many young adults today dating is not taken as a path to marriage, but as a relationship to be considered on its own terms with a beginning, middle, and end. Yet, research has not kept pace as most studies that look at relationships over time focus on marriages. In the present study, we look at individual differences and normative patterns of dating relationship quality over time. We tested a path model of associations between relationship du…
Test use and assessment practices of school psychology training programs
The last comprehensive study to examine the assessment practices promoted by school psychology programs was published 25 years ago (i.e., Wilson & Reschly, 1996). Since then, significant changes to assessment theory and practice have occurred. Data from a 2020 survey of directors of school psychology programs were collected to gain an understanding of current graduate training in test use and assessment. Results were compared to a current survey …
An independent examination of the equivalence of the standard and digital administration formats of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-5th Edition
Challenges for Behavioral Assessment in Brazilian Schools
In this article we begin by providing an overview of the need to increase the frequency with which behavioral assessment is used in Brazilian schools. We then describe various methods of behavioral assessment. Next, we discuss various purposes for assessing behavior in school settings. We then discuss general challenges that impact the assessment of behavior. Finally, we conclude by discussing the importance of identifying psychological and socia…
Using Score Equating and Measurement Invariance to Examine the Flynn Effect in the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale
The Flynn effect (FE; i.e., increase in mean IQ scores over time) is commonly viewed as reflecting population shifts in intelligence, despite the fact that most FE studies have not investigated the assumption of score comparability. Consequently, the extent to which these mean differences in IQ scores reflect population shifts in cognitive abilities versus changes in the instruments used to measure these abilities is unclear. In this study, we us…
Factor structure of the inventory of adult temperament styles
Temperament refers to stylistic and relatively stable traits that subsume intrinsic tendencies to act and react in somewhat predictable ways to people, events, and stimuli. Temperament can be defined by four bipolar styles: extroversion-introversion, practical-imaginative, thinking-feeling, and organized-flexible. These four styles provide the theoretical structure for the group administered Inventory of Adult Temperament Styles (IATS).Validity e…
