The purpose of this study is to examine the speed of responses as a potential rating factor in English language speaking tests for children. The participants in this study were 34 young English learners (1-6 graders, 6-12 years old). Comparing two factors -- the physical and psychological development, and the length of studying English -- the influence of physical and psychological development on English speaking accuracy was found to be greater than the length of studying English on that accuracy, though both factors' effects on fluency were not different. Affective variables (enjoyment with a test, willingness to speak after taking a test, and negative experiences associated with a test) did not significantly affect accuracy and fluency. Participants enjoyed the speaking test, and some participants' eye contact problems improved temporarily after the test.
