FAM™ SF

Feifer Assessment of Mathematics Screening Form

Purpose: Screens for math learning difficulties

Format: Paper and pencil, Download, E-Manual

Grade Range: Pre-K to College

Time: 15 minutes; 15 minutes to score

DETAILS:

Derived from the FAM, a comprehensive assessment of mathematics designed to examine the underlying neurodevelopmental process that supports the acquisition of proficient math skills, the FAM Screening Form allows you to quickly screen for dyscalculia and math learning disabilities and to identify the needs of at-risk students. 

Features and Benefits

• Designed to identify children at risk for dyscalculia or a math learning disability (MLD) within an RTI delivery system model.

• Measures the underlying cognitive and quantitative processes that underscore the development of mathematical achievement in a manner that best informs decisions about appropriate interventions.

• Comprises three subtests—one from each index—selected as the best representation of each domain based on clinical research and statistical analysis.

• Yields a single index score that indicates risk for dyscalculia or an MLD.

• Intended to assist users in deciding whether the risk of dyscalculia or an MLD is high enough to warrant further assessment.
