Introducing the WJ V Story Comprehension Test

Strong listening comprehension skills are essential for language development and overall academic success. Without a clear understanding of spoken language, students may struggle with literacy, problem-solving, and classroom learning. Identifying challenges early allows educators to provide targeted support and improve student outcomes.

That’s where the WJ V Story Comprehension Test comes in. This assessment evaluates a student’s ability to understand and process spoken narratives, offering valuable insights into oral language proficiency.

 

Why Choose the WJ V Story Comprehension Test?

  1. Comprehensive Evaluation

    Measures both listening comprehension (Gc) and oral language skills (Gc) to provide a clear picture of a student’s abilities.

  2. Age-Appropriate Start Points

    The test selects the best starting items based on a student’s age or grade level for a seamless assessment experience.

  3. Engaging Administration

    Audio-recorded stories ensure standardized delivery while allowing examiners to focus on student responses.

  4. Effortless Scoring

    Simple scoring guides make it easy to assess responses, track progress, and make data-driven decisions.

 

How It Works

The examinee listens to short stories from an audio recording and then answers comprehension questions read aloud by the examiner. The platform calculates a total score based on accuracy, providing immediate insights into a student’s listening comprehension abilities.

  • The test begins at an age-appropriate level, automatically adjusting for each examinee.
  • All stories are presented via audio recording for standardized administration.
  • Responses are marked correct or incorrect, with built-in guidance for when to query further.
  • The assessment ends when the examinee does not meet continuation criteria.
