A test in French to evaluate the reading speed of adults using a technique of rapid sequential presentation of words was developed. Four equivalent versions of the test were constructed using sentences chosen according to established MNRead criteria. Standards based on the performance of 45 adults who read without difficulty are reported. The capacity of the test to distinguish normal readers from dyslexic readers proved satisfactory. The psychometric indices obtained support the validity of the test, which responds to a strong need for evaluation of reading speed, and the availability of four versions allows for repeated measurement.
