Assessments and adaptations for remote administration.

Assessment	Description	Adaptations	Sample reliability coefficients	Publisher reliability coefficients
Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test, 2nd Edition (KBIT-2) – Matrices1	Standardized non-verbal IQ assessment	Scan of stimulus items screen-shared via Zoom	α: 0.83 Split-half: 0.81	Split-half: 0.81–0.88
Clinical Evaluation of Language Fundamentals, 5th Edition (CELF-5) – Understanding Spoken Paragraphs2	Standardized test of listening comprehension	Administered via Zoom	α: 0.74 Split-half: 0.79	α: 0.75–0.85
Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills (DIBELS)3 •  Word Reading Fluency (WRF) •  Passage Reading Fluency (PRF) •  Multiple Choice Reading Comprehension (MCRC)	Standardized measures to assess reading skills; MCRC is a computer-administered standardized test	WRF and PRF: Digital forms screen-shared via Zoom. Tester recorded errors on online progress monitoring site from publisher. MCRC: Tester screen-shared and child was given control of tester’s screen to select multiple choice answers. Alternative was to have child orally tell tester which answer to select (when child was unable to utilize “Remote Control”).	Item level data was not available

Comprehensive Test of Phonological Processing, 2nd Edition (CTOPP-2) – Non-word Repetition, Memory for Digits, Blending Words6	Standardized measures to assess baseline working memory skills	Audio files sent to families to download ahead of time; child/caregiver asked to play each file from their computer during assessment.	NWR α: 0.73 Split-half: 0.76 MD α: 0.8 Split-half: 0.84 BW α: 0.84 Split-half: 0.86	α: 0.77 α: 0.8 α: 0.8

α represents the Cronbach’s alpha and split-half represents the Spearman–Brown prophecy formula. Reliability coefficient values above 0.71 are considered acceptable (George and Mallery, 2003). Publisher reliability information was obtained from the technical manuals and reports released by the respective companies.
