Developments in Curriculum-Based Measurement
TL;DR: Curriculum-based measurement (CBM) as discussed by the authors is an approach for assessing the growth of students in basic skills that originated uniquely in special education, and a substantial research literature has developed to demonstrate that CBM can be used effectively to gather student performance data to support a wide range of educational decisions.

Literature Synthesis on Curriculum-Based Measurement in Reading
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the research on curriculum-based measurement (CBM) in reading published since the time of Marston's 1989 review, focusing on the technical adequacy of CBM related to measures, materials, and representation of growth.

Assessing intervention responsiveness: Conceptual and technical issues.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore conceptual and technical issues associated with options for specifying three assessment components: the timing of the measurement of student response to intervention; the criterion for demarcating learning as inadequate (below which students are identified as LD); and the nature of the intervention.

The Validity of Informal Reading Comprehension Measures
TL;DR: This paper assess the criterion, construct, and concurrent validity of four informal reading comprehension measures: question answering tests, recall measures, oral passage reading tests, and cloze techniques, and conclude that the correct oral reading rate score demonstrated the strongest criterion validity.
