examiners obtain actual discrepancies and avoid errors typically associated with
estimated discrepancies. Riverside Publisihing, WJ III.
Reliability -- Most of the WJ III NU tests show strong reliabilities of .80 or higher; several
are .90 or higher.
Test Taking Conditions Required
The test consists of an A and B form. The test is also broken into two batteries.
There is a Standard Battery and an Extended Battery. The materials that are needed
when using the WJ III include the testing booklet, test forms A or B, depending on the
test that is given. There is an administrators booklet and a students booklet to write in.
The proctor may need a stopwatch, depending on what tests they are using. There are
only a few sections in the test that are timed. One of the tests that are timed, include the
Reading Fluency test.
The test is individually administered. Most test in the Woodcock Johnson take
approximately 5 minutes individually but may vary. If all 11 Achievement tests were
given at one time, it would approximately take 55-56minutes. For example, the Reading
Fluency test is a 3 minute timed test. Students have 3 minutes to read individual
sentences and determine if the meaning of the statement is true. If the statement is true
the student circles y for yes. If it is not true the student circles n for no.
The ideal testing environment is one where the proctor and student can test
uninterrupted. The WJ III book is a flip book where the proctor sits on one side and
reads the prompts to the student while the student is on the other side of the book,
answering the testing questions.
