Counting-Focused Intervention Effects for Students with Mathematics Difficulty: A Research Synthesis
Peer reviewed
Direct linkSyeda Sharjina Akther; Sarah R. Powell; Danielle O. Lariviere – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2025
Counting is foundational to success with mathematics. In this synthesis, we analyzed 17 studies about counting-focused interventions for preschool and kindergarten students with mathematics difficulty or at-risk of mathematics difficulty. All interventions addressed several components of counting, including stable order, one-to-one correspondence,…

The purpose of this study was to investigate how a prosocial behavior psychoeducation program affected the problem behaviors and self-regulation abilities of preschoolers. In the study that employed the experimental research technique, a pretest-posttest control group was part of a quasi-experimental design. In the 2nd semester of the 2023-2024…

Doabler, Christian T.; Clarke, Ben; Kosty, Derek; Maddox, Steven A.; Smolkowski, Keith; Fien, Hank; Baker, Scott K.; Kimmel, Georgia L. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2021
A concerning number of students enter kindergarten facing an intractable variation of mathematics difficulties (MD). This study investigated the impact of an explicit, core kindergarten mathematics program on the mathematical outcomes of kindergartners who demonstrated risk for severe MD at kindergarten entry and examined whether these students…

Doabler, Christian T.; Clarke, Ben; Kosty, Derek; Kurtz-Nelson, Evangeline; Fien, Hank; Smolkowski, Keith; Baker, Scott K. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2019
Group size and treatment intensity are understudied topics in mathematics intervention research. This study examined whether the treatment intensity and overall intervention effects of an empirically validated Tier 2 mathematics intervention varied between intervention groups with 2:1 and 5:1 student-teacher ratios. Student practice opportunities…

Watts, Gavin W.; Bryant, Diane Pedrotty; Roberts, Garrett J. – Journal of Emotional and Behavioral Disorders, 2020
Challenges with numerical proficiency at an early age can lead to substantial gaps in learning and are associated with detrimental long-term outcomes. In addition, students with emotional-behavioral disorders (EBD) can have some of the most challenging behavioral and academic needs to address. The purpose of this study was to identify the effects…

Praet, Magda; Desoete, Annemie – Learning Disabilities: A Contemporary Journal, 2019
The purpose of the present pilot study was to evaluate the effects of particular educational math games in kindergarten on numerical skills in Grade 1. Our participants were 49 children with early math difficulties, 65 average achievers, and 48 high-achieving 5-year-old children. All of them played various adaptive math games for 5 weeks. To avoid…

Salminen, Jonna; Koponen, Tuire; Räsänen, Pekka; Aro, Mikko – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2015
Weaknesses in early number skills have been found to be a risk factor for later difficulties in mathematical performance. Nevertheless, only a few intervention studies with young children have been published. In this study, the responsiveness to early support in kindergarteners with most severe difficulties was examined with two different computer…
