Summary
Accommodation
Individuals took a computerized version of the test, as opposed to a paper-and-pencil test.
Participants
Participants from 28 studies, which included high school age students and adults, were included in this analysis. Information on individual disability status was not included.
Dependent Variable
Various timed power and speeded tests of cognitive abilities were the dependent variables in this study.
Findings
It appears that performance across modes was similar. The correlation was found to be .91 when correlations among studies were analyzed simultaneously. The estimate of disattenuated cross-mode correlation for the speeded tests was moderate (.72), while the correlation for the timed power tests was higher (.97).
