Background: In children with a cleft palate with or without a cleft lip (CP±L), some evidence exists for superior results of high-intensity speech intervention (HISI) compared with low-intensity speech intervention (LISI) on speech and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). However, the existing research often involves small sample sizes.…

Students with Emotional Behavioral Disorders (EBD) exhibit behaviors that interfere with their ability to access instruction and identifying feasible and effective school-based interventions is critical for promoting their academic success. Previous research has shown the positive effects of a self-management package that involved gradually and…

Optimizing the workload of university students is important for their academic performance and student experience. Large perceived workloads are associated with poorer academic performance and lower student satisfaction in university students. In response to student feedback in 2021, we redesigned a second-year undergraduate physiology subject to…

We examined the effect of intervention dosage on mathematics outcomes for students with or at risk for mathematics learning disability in kindergarten through third grade. Using linear and nonlinear models, we meta-analyzed 164 effect sizes from 24 published experimental and quasi-experimental studies. Results supported a linear model and an…

Many students diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) encounter difficulties related to self-management, which subsequently hinder their capacity to actively engage in online learning. As the enrollment of students with ASD in online education continues to rise, the exploration of self-management techniques adaptable to this educational…

English language learners (ELL) and Hispanic students are at an increased risk for academic difficulty. Effective classroom management strategies may help these students, but teachers often report lack of training in such strategies. Class-wide Function-related Intervention Teams in Middle School (CW-FIT MS) is a research-based intervention that…

Teachers have the responsibility of managing student classroom behavior. The positive effects of evidence-based classroom management methods, like Class-Wide Function-related Intervention Teams (CW-FIT), have been demonstrated in a variety of settings; however, research on the efficacy of CW-FIT in special education classrooms is scarce. The…

Class-wide Function-related Intervention Teams (CW-FIT) is a classroom management intervention in which teachers incorporate positive behavior support (PBS) principles by teaching specific classroom expectations and providing feedback on student behavior as part of an interdependent group contingency. Interventions like CW-FIT may be helpful for…

Objective: We examined how mentorship, remote participation, and COVID-19 challenges were associated with the mental health of college students participating in summer research programs. Participants: Participants were students participating in 78 National Science Foundation (NSF) Research Experiences for Undergraduate (REU) Sites during Summer…
