Wolfe, Katie; Dickenson, Tammiee S.; McGrath, Kathleen Virginia; Miller, Bridget – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2017
Although visual analysis has been the primary method of analysis in single-case designs (SCD), numerous statistical analyses have been developed to quantify SCD intervention effects and enable SCDs to be included in evidence-based practice reviews. This study investigated the correspondence between expert visual analysis and three effect sizes for…

Kim, Kyung – Language Assessment Quarterly, 2017
The present study considers the potential influence of first language (L1) in reading second language (L2) science text. University mixed proficiency Korean English language learners (n = 136) were asked to complete pre- and post-reading "sorting maps" in L1 or L2 (e.g., sort Korean, read text, sort English). All of the participants'…

Auerbach, Charles; Schudrich, Wendy Zeitlin – Research on Social Work Practice, 2013
The need for statistical analysis in single-subject designs presents a challenge, as analytical methods that are applied to group comparison studies are often not appropriate in single-subject research. "SSD for R" is a robust set of statistical functions with wide applicability to single-subject research. It is a comprehensive package…

Gallagher, H. Colin; Robins, Garry – Language Learning, 2015
As part of the shift within second language acquisition (SLA) research toward complex systems thinking, researchers have called for investigations of social network structure. One strand of social network analysis yet to receive attention in SLA is network statistical models, whereby networks are explained in terms of smaller substructures of…
