A Comparison of the Spontaneous Writing Quotient of the Test of Written Language (3rd ed.) and Teacher Ratings of Writing Progress.

Burns, Matthew K.; Symington, Todd

Assessment for Effective Intervention, v28 n2 p29-34 Win 2003

A study compared the Spontaneous Writing Quotient (SWQ) of the Test of Writing Language-3 to teacher progress ratings of 147 students (grades 3-5) in the local writing curriculum. Corrected coefficients ranged from .39 to .48, offering only low to moderate support for the criterion-related validity relative to the local curriculum. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
