Abstract
Rapid automatized naming (RAN) is a powerful predictor of reading fluency, and many digitized dyslexia screeners include RAN as an essential component. However, the validity of digitized RAN has not been established. Using a sample of 174 second-graders, this study tested (1) the comparability between paper and digitized versions of RAN and (2) the validity of the digitized version. We found that paper and digital versions were highly correlated, and such correlation was consistent across students’ reading levels. Further, the digital RAN predicted children’s word reading proficiency as well as the paper version. Moreover, the constructs measured by paper and digital versions of RAN were comparable. We conclude that the digitized RAN is a valid alternative to the traditional paper version for this age group.
快速自动命名（RAN）是预测阅读流畅性的有力指标，许多数字化诵读困难筛查工具都将 RAN 作为一个重要组成部分。然而，数字化 RAN 的有效性尚未得到证实。本研究以 174 名二年级学生为样本，测试了（1）纸质版和数字化版 RAN 的可比性；（2）数字化版 RAN 的有效性。我们发现，纸质版和数字版的相关性很高，而且这种相关性在不同阅读水平的学生之间是一致的。此外，数字版 RAN 对儿童单词阅读能力的预测与纸质版相同。此外，纸质版和数字版 RAN 所测量的结构具有可比性。我们的结论是，对于这个年龄段的学生来说，数字化 RAN 是传统纸质版 RAN 的有效替代品。
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment (JPA) publishes contemporary and important information focusing on psychological and educational assessment research and evidence-based practices as well as assessment instrumentation. JPA is well known internationally for the quality of published assessment-related research, theory and practice papers, and book and test reviews. The methodologically sound and impiricially-based studies and critical test and book reviews will be of particular interest to all assessment specialists including practicing psychologists, psychoeducational consultants, educational diagnosticians and special educators.
