Preliminary Evidence Regarding the Validity of a Modified Cloze Procedure for Lower Elementary ESL Students.
Baldauf, Richard B., Jr.; Propst, Ivan K., Jr.
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v38 n2 p451-55 Sum 1978, 78
The cloze procedure, an established measure of reading achievement, requires language and reading skills not yet available to elementary school English-second-language pupils who are not literate in their vernacular. A modified cloze procedure, designed to overcome this problem, was found to correlate with traditional vocabulary and reading measures. (Author/JKS)
