An Authoritative Bibliography of easyCBM© Research Page 3 Abstract This technical report provides an authoritative bibliographic resource of all the studies conducted on easyCBM® and published on the main website for Behavioral Research and Teaching under Publications ([https://brtprojects.org](https://brtprojects.org)) . The easyCBM© software is a direct descendent of Curriculum-based Measurement (CBM) at the University of Minnesota, which has over 40 years of research supporting its technical adequacy. In this report, however, we only include research on the easyCBM© software itself, summarized in hundreds of technical reports (TRs), not on the larger body of research conducted on CBM more generally. Beyond this introduction and a brief discussion with three published summaries, this report is organized into three sections: (a) test development,(b) reliability, and (c) validity. Within each section, we provide a brief introduction highlighting the main types of research that have been completed on easyCBM© and then simply list all the technical reports (TR), available by placing the TR Number in the search key on the BRT Publications page. Each individual TR provides an abstract, brief introduction, and tables of results. Note that the TRs on test development and validation document a structured process not appropriate for the professional peer-reviewed literature because they are too detailed (with extensive tables for others to review) and do not contribute new insights and knowledge. Nevertheless, they need to be published and made publicly available. In obvious areas where test development and validation can be proffered with new insights for the professional literature, such publications appear in the form of peer-reviewed published articles, conference papers, and book chapters, attainable from the lead authors in BRT through their vita, also available on the main BRT website, [https://brtprojects.org](https://brtprojects.org), Meet Us…About Our Team.
