Evidence of item content bias in the Illinois Test of Psycholinguistic Abilities (ITPA) is examined. The instrument fails, in certain subtests, to relate to the basic communication skills of Headstart children in the rural South. Incautious application of the test to minority groups may not yield adequate functional assessment of these children's skills. The authors recommend that alternative scoring procedures, local norms, or new items be developed.

Abstract: The author examined gendered evaluation responses to experiential learning in terms of how students rated the overall experience, responded to experiential learning, and responded to experiential learning facilitators. An analysis of evaluation forms indicated no difference in the overall rating of the experience. In responses to the experiential learning context, females noted receiving encouragement and claimed communication apprehension reduction. Regarding experiential learning facilitators, males focused on instructional competence and individual practices while females noted facilitators' knowledge and their easy-going natures. The facilitator's sex did not influence responses. The findings underscore the importance of personnel in creating gender-sensitive experiential learning contexts that offer a ``warm climate'' for both men and women. Résumé: L'auteur a comparé les réactions d'étudiants males et femelles à l'égard de l'apprentissage expérentiel examinant selon la leurs perspectives sur l'expérience globale, l'apprentissage expérentiel et les facilitateurs d'apprentissage expérentiel. Une analyse des formulaires d'évaluation ne permet pas d'indiquer une différence entre hommes et femmes quant à la perception de l'expérience globale. En ce qui a trait à l'apprentissage expérentiel, les femmes ont noté les encouragements qu'elles ont reçus et ont déclaré une diminution dans leur appréhension à communiquer. Pour ce qui est des facilitateurs d'apprentissage expérentiel, les hommes ont souligné la compétence d'instruction et les pratiques individuelles tandis que les femmes ont noté le savoir des facilitateurs et leur nature paisible. Le sexe du facilitateur n'a pas influencé les réponses. Les résultats mettent en évidence l'importance pour le personnel de la création de contextes d'apprentissage expérentiel quitiennent compte du sexe des participants et qui offrent un "climat chaleureux" autant pour les hommes que pour les femmes.

<p>This study used the descriptive correlation survey research method to establish the relationship between the learning styles and basic communication skills of the Information Technology Education students who were officially enrolled in English 1 during the first semester of the school year 2011-2012 in the University of the Immaculate Conception. The researchers then identified the types of secondary school and elementary schools attended by the respondents. Survey questionnaireswere used to determine the respondent’s profile and the student learning styles scales by Grasha –Reichmann (2008). The statistical tools used were frequency, percentage and Chi-square test. The researcher concluded that an almost similar number of respondents had high school grades equivalent to 85 and above in comparison to those with high school grades below 85. Moreover, majority of the respondents were from private elementary and secondary schools. Most of them registered poor English proficiency and reported collaborating learning styles. Furthermore, the learning styles, high school average grade in English, and the types of elementary and secondary schools attended by the respondents did not significantly affect respondents’ English proficiency. Only teacher factors influenced it. It is therefore crucial for teachers to ensure that their preferred teaching styles could optimize students’ learning.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Keywords.</strong> Learning styles, basic communication skills, descriptive-correlation, University of the Immaculate Conception, Davao City, Philippines.</p>
