Test Re-test Reliability across Alternate Forms for ORF Median and Mean Score across Time Points and z-score test of the Difference in Test Re-test Reliability across Alternate Forms for Testing Time Points 1–5 for Adequate Readers.

	Test Re-test Reliability across Alternate Forms for the ORF Median and Mean Score (Time Point 1 with Time Points 2–5)

	Time Point 1 – Time Point 2	Time Point 1 – Time Point 3	Time Point 1 – Time Point 4	Time Point 1 – Time Point 5
Median	.87	.86	.84	0.83
Mean	.88	.87	.85	0.83

	Testing the Magnitude of the Difference between the Test Re-test Reliability ORF Median and Mean Score (Time Point 1 with Time Points 2–5)

	Time Point 1 – Time Point 2	Time Point 1 – Time Point 3	Time Point 1 – Time Point 4	Time Point 1 – Time Point 5
Median vs. Mean	−.73	−.69	0	0

Note. n = 590.

alternate form reliability of ORF Median Score is statistically higher than ORF Mean Score;

alternate form reliability of ORF Mean Score is statistically higher than Median Score. Alpha per comparison = 0.05/2 = 0.025. Critical z = 2.33.
