The FAR was designed to evaluate the underlying cognitive and linguistic processes of reading. It has 15 subtests to evaluate aspects of phonological development, orthographical processing, decoding, reading fluency, and comprehension skills. Academic achievement tests endeavor to evaluate core neuropsychological and theoretical perspectives that identify students at risk. However, reading tests have historically not focused on why a student may struggle with reading interventions. A neuropsychological approach to reading posits that multiple neural pathways assist the reading process. These processes include orthographic mapping, phonemic awareness, fluency, decoding, and comprehension. The aim of the test is to help the evaluator learn why a student is struggling with reading, as well as to inform intervention. This review explores the Feifer Assessment of Reading (FAR), and its contribution to the neuropsychological evaluation of reading.</p>","PeriodicalId":73892,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pediatric neuropsychology","volume":" ","pages":"137-142"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9244513/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40572717","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There has been little research about which measures of attention are most suitable for use with young children with NF1. This pilot study explored several computerized measures of attention, a digits forward task, and parent report measures of attention to compare their reliability, validity, and the degree to which they capture attention difficulty in this population. Participants with NF1 ages 4 to 6 years were seen for one (<i>n=</i>2) or two (<i>n=</i>18) time points. Statistical analyses for evaluating evidence for test-retest reliability, convergent and discriminant validity, practice effects, and identification of difficulties were conducted. Each measure demonstrated relative strengths and weaknesses, and there may not be a \"one size fits all\" measure for use with young children with NF1. However, the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function Preschool/Second Edition, Conners Early Childhood Inattention/Hyperactivity Scale, and the Conners Kiddie Continuous Performance Test Second Edition generally had the highest reliability and most evidence of validity. More specific recommendations are provided for the appropriate measure to use in clinical and research batteries.</p>","PeriodicalId":73892,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pediatric neuropsychology","volume":"8 3","pages":"123-136"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9397181/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"33442050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
