Abstract
Students with disabilities are often given accommodations in testing situations (e.g., extended testing time). However, for many students with high-incidence disabilities, interventions can reduce the need for these accommodations or serve as a helpful supplement to accommodations. Applied behavior analysis provides a framework for understanding how accommodations alter testing settings, as well as for developing related interventions. We review research on evidence-based interventions that can reduce the need for five common testing accommodations: extended testing time, separate room administration, test breaks, read-aloud, and dictated response. We conclude with suggestions for changes to school-based practice as well as remaining research needs.
