Abstract	The final report describes the accomplishments of an 18-month study designed to adapt and standardize the 7th Edition of the Stanford Achievement Test with a national, randomly drawn sample of hearing-impaired students. The following objectives were accomplished: (1) test material and special procedures were developed and disseminated; (2) the test (Form E) was administered to 8,332 students with the use of special procedures developed as part of the project; (3) age-based percentile rank norms for hearing-impaired students were computed; (4) computerized test score programs were developed which prepared individual student reports, including the hearing-impaired norms; (5) computerized data files, including achievement, demographic, handicapping, and curriculum information, were statistically analyzed; (6) forms E and F of the Stanford were administered to a second randomly drawn sample of about 900 hearing-impaired students to establish parallel forms reliability; (7) the technical manual was outlined and about 60% of the planned statistical analyses were completed; and (8) eight national workshops were carried out instructing teachers on the administration and interpretation of the new test. Two papers are also presented, on screening procedures for assigning students to the appropriate levels of the Stanford Achievement Test and on achievement patterns of hearing impaired students.
