Will warm-up exercises before short reading rate measures improve reliability of measurement? Do two-minute rate tests yield more reliable scores than one-minute tests? To research these questions, students read three passages in counterbalanced order. Correlations were significantly greater between rate scores of second- and third-administered passages than between scores of first- and second-administered passages in an eighth-grade sample, but not in an eleventh-grade sample. Two-minute measures were significantly more reliable than one-minute rate measures in the grade eleven sample, but not in the grade eight sample. Implications for teachers were discussed. |
