A Summary of the Research on the Effects of Test Accommodations: 2013-2014. NCEO Report 402
Rogers, Christopher M.; Lazarus, Sheryl S.; Thurlow, Martha L.
National Center on Educational Outcomes
This report provides an update on the state of the research on testing accommodations as well as to identify promising future areas of research. Previous reports by NCEO have covered research published since 1999. We summarize the research to review current research trends and enhance understanding of the implications of accommodations use in the development of future policy directions, implementation of current and new accommodations, and valid and reliable interpretations when accommodations are used in testing situations. Key issues under investigation include how accommodations affect test scores, how educators and students perceive accommodations, and how accommodations are selected and implemented.
