Configuring EVT-2 Reports & the PPVT-4/EVT-2 Receptive-Expressive Comparison Report

For EVT-2, two reports are available: Individual Score Summary Report and Individual Progress Report.

 

Information regarding the PPVT-4/EVT-2 Comparison Report is also available on this page.  

 

 

EVT-2 Individual Score Summary Report

The EVT-2 Individual Score Report contains four sections: Score Summary, Narrative Report (optional), Diagnostic Item Analysis (optional), and Suggested Interventions (optional).

 

Score Summary

The score summary contains a distribution curve with standard deviations, standard scores, percentile ranks, stanines, and descriptive categories. The standard score, percentile rank, stanine, and confidence interval are plotted.

 

Narrative Report

The optional narrative report page contains EVT-2 narrative information, general overview of the EVT-2 assessment,  

examinee demographic data and results for the examinee’s performance on the EVT-2.

 

Diagnostic Item Analysis

The Individual Diagnostic Analysis is only available when item entry is used.

The Diagnostic Analysis table presents the EVT-2 item numbers and columns for the Noun, Verb, and Attribute parts of speech that an item may measure. If an item is a scale item for a specific part of speech, the box is left white. If an item is not a scale item for a specific part of speech, the box is shaded. If an item has not been answered correctly, the error is identified with an 'X'. Basal and ceiling items are identified with an asterisk (*).

The part of speech name, number of items attempted, number of items correct, percent correct, and a bar graph visually showing the percent correct is also presented.

 

Suggested Interventions

The optional suggested interventions section contains intervention suggestions based on the examinee’s EVT-2 standard score. The Suggested Interventions section includes vocabulary principle descriptions, The Bridge of Vocabulary suggested intervention activities, and activity descriptions and references.

PPVT-4/EVT-2 Receptive-Expressive Comparison Report

The PPVT-4/EVT-2 Receptive-Expressive Comparison Report contains six sections: Score Comparison, Description of Comparison, Parts of Speech, Home/School, Tiered Words and Results Narrative.

 

Score Comparison  

The score comparison presents the test/form, test date, norm group (age), standard score, standard score difference, significance of difference, and % of population with difference.

 

Description of Comparison

The comparison description is a static paragraph stating what can be obtained by comparing scores on the PPVT-4 and EVT-2 tests.

 

Parts of Speech

In the Parts of Speech section, the items attempted, items correct, and percent correct for the parts of speech (noun, verb, and attribute) are listed for the PPVT-4 and the EVT-2.  The percent correct for each PPVT-4 and EVT-2 part of speech are plotted in a bar graph.

 

Home/School

In the Home/School section, the items attempted, items correct, and percent correct for home and school vocabulary are listed for the PPVT-4 and the EVT-2.  The percent correct for the home and school scales for the PPVT-4 and EVT-2 are plotted in a bar graph.

 

Tiered Words

In the Tiered Words section, the items attempted, items correct, and percent correct for the tiered words (Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3) are listed for the PPVT-4 and the EVT-2.  The percent correct for each PPVT-4 and EVT-2 tier are plotted in a bar graph.

 

Results Narrative

The results narrative outlines general information that can be obtained by comparing the PPVT-4 and EVT-2 scores. Standard score difference information that is specific to the examinee is presented. General information stating what can be obtained from Classification by Part of Speech, Classification by Home Versus School Vocabulary, Classification by a Three-Tier Model, and Crossover Vocabulary Sampling Between eVT-2 and PPVT-4 are presented.

 

The PPVT-4/EVT-2 Receptive-Expressive Comparison Report does not contain report options or settings.

 

Additional Information:

• Two EVT-2 Individual Score Summary reports must be generated for an examinee before an Individual Progress Report can be generated.

• The PPVT-4/EVT-2 Receptive-Expressive Comparison Report can be printed for Form A and/or Form B of the assessment.

• A PPVT-4 Individual Score Summary Report and EVT-2Individual Score Summary Report must be generated for an examinee before PPVT-4/EVT-2 Receptive-

Expressive Comparison Report can be generated.

• The PPVT-4/EVT-2 Receptive-Expressive Comparison Report can only be generated when the EVT-2 date of administration and PPVT-4 date of administration are within 365 days of one another. If the time period between the EVT-2 administration and PPVT-4 administration exceed 365 days, the report cannot be generated.
