Summary
Accommodation
The tests were given under two conditions: Timed and Untimed.
Participants
A total of 222 fifth grade students participated in this study, 6 with physical disabilities, 94 with learning disabilities, and 112 without disabilities (125 boys and 97 girls).
Dependent Variable
Each student took parallel forms G and H of either the Language Usage and Expression test or the Mathematics Concepts test of the Iowa Tests of Basic Skills.
Findings
The results of the study provide no evidence of a difference in test speededness for the group with disabilities and the group without disabilities nor evidence that the groups are differentially affected when the amount of speededness was reduced.
