Sabol, Terri J.; McCoy, Dana Charles; Gonzalez, Kathryn; Hanno, Emily; Busby, Andrea; Wei, Wendy; Downer, Jason – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2023
The current study examined the contexts in which a preschool teacher professional development intervention was more versus less effective in improving student outcomes. We used a fixed intercept, random coefficient (FIRC) modeling approach to explore the contextual characteristics inside and outside school walls that predicted differential…

Burchinal, Margaret; Foster, Tiffany; Garber, Kylie; Cohen-Vogel, Lora; Bratsch-Hines, Mary; Peisner-Feinberg, Ellen – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Pre-kindergarten (Pre-K) programs typically improve early academic skills, but those gains too often disappear after children transition to elementary school. At least three hypotheses explain this "fade-out" of Pre-K effects: Pre-K does not focus on the "trifecta skills" that uniquely support subsequent learning and…

Wendy S. Wei; Dana C. McCoy; Andrea Kinghorn Busby; Emily C. Hanno; Terri J. Sabol – Grantee Submission, 2021
The neighborhood literature consistently documents associations between neighborhood socioeconomic status (SES) and child development. Yet, this approach may miss important heterogeneity in neighborhood resources (e.g., libraries, doctors' offices) that have important implications for children. Moreover, the mechanisms that explain the relation…

Ansari, Arya; Zimmermann, Kathryn; Pianta, Robert C.; Whittaker, Jessica V.; Vitiello, Virginia E.; Yang, Qingqing; Ruzek, Erik A. – American Educational Research Journal, 2023
This study examined whether pre-K benefits persist through the end of first grade and the extent to which persistence differs based on outcome domains, subsequent classroom environments, and key subgroups of children. Data from 2,351 children living in a large and diverse county in Virginia revealed that the initial benefits of pre-K for academic…

Aikens, Nikki; Nguyen, Tutrang; Harding, Jessica F. – Mathematica, 2021
One widely used tool that captures the process quality of preschool classrooms, including interactions between teachers and children, is the Classroom Assessment Scoring System-Preschool (Pre-K CLASS; Pianta et al. 2008). The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation funded Mathematica to conduct a literature scan to search for recent studies analyzing…

Guerrero-Rosada, Paola; Weiland, Christina; McCormick, Meghan; Hsueh, JoAnn; Sachs, Jason; Snow, Catherine; Maier, Michelle – Grantee Submission, 2021
General measures of process quality are widely used in the early childhood education (ECE) field. However, the evidence regarding associations between the most widely used process quality measure, the Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS; Pianta et al., 2008), and children's school readiness gains during the preschool year is mixed. Using…

Peisner-Feinberg, Ellen; Zadrozny, Sabrina; Kuhn, Laura; Van Manen, Karen – FPG Child Development Institute, 2019
The primary purpose of the 2017-2018 NC Pre-Kindergarten (NC Pre-K) Evaluation was to examine the effectiveness of the NC Pre-K Program using a randomized controlled trial (RCT) design. The major issue addressed by this type of study is around the benefits of offering children access to enrollment in NC Pre-K. An RCT is considered the…
