The ASRP Profile

When we talk about the "ASRP Profile," we are referring to learners in one of the 11 profiles we created from the ARCS (the Adult Reading Components Study) participants who have reading abilities most similar to your learner's. If your learner had been a participant in the ARCS, she/he would have been in this profile. That is why your learner has been matched and is being compared to this particular research-based reading profile.

You can see more about the process used to create the ARCS profiles on the "About ASRP Profiles", a menu item on the sidebar of each ASRP Web site page.
