Unfortunately the TABE only assesses reading comprehension and vocabulary in 
forms 7 and 8.  We are looking for a test that assessess more aspects of 
reading (i.e. word analysis, word recognition, oral vocabulary, and reading 
comprehension).  We are also looking for a test normed on adults for 
phonological awareness.

How does the ABLE fare in these areas?
