Brief experimental analyses (BEA) have been primarily used to evaluate the effects of interventional variables on reading fluency deficits. This study expanded this area of research by examining spelling interventions for students with below grade level spelling achievement. Researchers analyzed interventions addressing motivation, practice…

Headsprout is a commercially available, computer-based reading intervention that has been shown to be effective with children without disabilities and with children with ASD. Although recent studies that conducted a randomized clinical trial have demonstrated efficacy, they did not report specifically on feasibility. The current RCT evaluated the…

Students identified with emotional or behavioral disorders (EBD) display deficits across academic content areas, most notably in mathematics. We reviewed research on student-mediated math interventions for students with EBD. A total of 19 studies published between 1968 and 2019 met inclusion criteria, with 24 of 32 cases meeting the What Works…

Students with a TBI can present with a variety of functional impairments, such as fine motor and executive dysfunctions, which manifest in compromised written expression. The present study used brief experimental analysis (BEA) techniques to compare the effects of writing accommodations on the quantity and quality of writing of a high school…

Previous research has shown that disruptive behavior can impair students' academic success (Pierce et al. in Remedial Spec Educ 25:175-188, 2004, https://doi-org.bibliotheek.ehb.be/10.1177/07419325040250030501), as well as increase teacher's stress level (Westling in Remedial Spec Educ 31:48-63, 2010, https://doi-org.bibliotheek.ehb.be/10.1177/0741932508327466). The Class Pass…

This systematic review and meta-analysis explores the effectiveness of teacher interventions supporting children with externalizing behaviors based on teacher and child outcomes. A systematic search was conducted using 5 electronic databases. From 5714 papers, 31 papers that included interventions delivered directly to teachers and aimed to…

Groups of children often transition between activity spaces in both academic and recreational settings. In schools, children may be asked to walk as a group between the classroom and spaces such as a cafeteria and playground whereas summer camps similarly use different spaces for separate activities throughout a scheduled day. Interdependent group…

The effectiveness of a behavior intervention package depends heavily on the ability of authentic educators to implement procedures with fidelity. However, much of the training literature focuses on teaching educators to implement procedures with relatively few components (Kirkpatrick Journal of Behavioral Education 28(3): 344-361, 2019). We used a…

Headsprout Early Reading is a computer-based program designed on behavioral principles to enhance the basic skills that underpin the initial development of reading. In a within and between groups design, and using primary schools within Northern Ireland that had a currently high proportion of disadvantaged pupils, children who were behind their…

This review compared the effectiveness of functional behavior assessment-based interventions (FBAI) versus non-functional behavior assessment-based interventions (NFBAI) through an examination of 24 single-case design (SCD) studies that directly compared the effects of these intervention approaches. This review also systematically examined the…

Prompt cues for recording in self-monitoring interventions can be delivered through a number of different modalities. The current study evaluated a self-monitoring intervention using a discreet auditory prompt (via a single wireless in-ear headphone) plus reinforcement for recording accuracy on increasing on-task behaviors in individuals with…

Problem behavior in the classroom leads to challenges for teachers who often feel ill equipped to address such behavior. Behavior analytic interventions have been shown to be effective for reducing problem behavior in the classroom. Less is known about the impact of these interventions when implemented using digital technology. The purpose of the…

This study employed an alternating treatments design to compare the effects of two types of practice conditions on the subtraction fact fluency in a fifth-grade classroom. Eight, fifth-grade students participated in the study over a 5-week intervention period practicing addition and subtraction facts in a "fact families" condition (A +…

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…

The purpose of this study was to systematically review the literature researching telepractice and parent-implemented language and communication interventions. A total of 12 studies met inclusion criteria and comprise the final study sample. A majority of the included articles were single-case research studies, and two were randomized controlled…
