The study of letter-sound relationships and the examination of words for meaningful parts, are necessary skills for children to acquire if they are to become independent readers. The SPSAT was designed for teachers, reading specialists, special education teachers, speech/language pathologists, and others familiar with phonics and structural analysis.
Phonics Clusters Assess:
• Consonant blends / Consonant digraphs / Short Vowels / Long Vowels (final e and open syllable, and vowel digraphs) / R - controlled vowels / a followed by l, ll, w, and u / diphthongs / hard and soft sounds of c and g / and silent consonants.
Overall test-retest reliability was .90 and internal consistency was .96. Concurrent validity studies resulted on overall Phonics Index correlations of .75, .68, and .86 with the Woodcock Johnson-Revised (WJ-R) L-W Identification and Word Attack and the WRAT-3 Reading subtests, respectively. The Structural Analysis Index correlated .81 with the WJ-R Dictation. Standard scores, percentile ranks, age-equivalents are grade-equivalents for the phonics and structural analysis indices and total scale score are available. Both age and grade norms are provided.
