Self-esteem has been problematic for researchers because it is complex, stable, and hard to measure. When assessing the self-esteem of out-of-school time (OST) program participants, some researchers may think their instruments will not detect changes, either because the program does not last long enough to make a difference or because self-esteem…

Hedges, Larry V.; Hedberg, E. C.; Kuyper, Arend M. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2012
Intraclass correlations are used to summarize the variance decomposition in populations with multilevel hierarchical structure. There has recently been considerable interest in estimating intraclass correlations from surveys or designed experiments to provide design parameters for planning future large-scale randomized experiments. The large…

Boardman, Alison; Buckley, Pamela; Maul, Andrew; Vaughn, Sharon – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2014
Collaborative Strategic Reading (CSR) is a set of research-based strategies designed to improve reading comprehension, enhance students' content area learning, facilitate access to higher-level texts, and to promote student engagement. The present study examines how fidelity of implementation of CSR is associated with reading outcomes for students…

Shields, Katherine A.; Walsh, Mary E.; Lee-St. John, Terrence J. – Journal of Catholic Education, 2016
Much of the achievement gap between rich and poor students can be attributed to out-of-school factors, yet few schools have a comprehensive, coordinated system for addressing students' nonacademic needs. Within a group of Catholic schools located in one city, this study examined academic achievement on the Stanford Achievement Test battery in…

Lynn Ahlgrim-Delzell; Diane M. Browder; Leah Wood; Carol Stanger; Angela I. Preston; Amy Kemp-Inman – Journal of Special Education, 2016
A phonics-based reading curriculum in which students used an iPad to respond was created for students with developmental disabilities not able to verbally participate in traditional phonics instruction due to their use of augmentative and assistive communication. Time delay and a system of least prompts used in conjunction with text-to-speech…

Hollway, Jill A.; Aman, Michael G.; Butter, Eric – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2013
We explored possible cognitive, behavioral, emotional, and physiological risk markers for sleep disturbance in children with autism spectrum disorders. Data from 1,583 children in the Autism Treatment Network were analyzed. Approximately 45 potential predictors were analyzed using hierarchical regression modeling. As medication could confound…

Wang, Shin-Yi; Parrila, Rauno; Cui, Ying – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2013
This meta-analysis used hierarchical linear modeling to examine 115 single-case studies with 343 participants that examined the effectiveness of social skills interventions for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The average effect size of the included studies was 1.40 (SD = 0.43, 95% CL = 1.32-1.48, N = 115). In the further, several…

Gillen-O'Neel, Cari; Fuligni, Andrew – Child Development, 2013
This longitudinal study examined how school belonging changes over the years of high school, and how it is associated with academic achievement and motivation. Students from Latin American, Asian, and European backgrounds participated ("N" = 572; age span = 13.94-19.15 years). In ninth grade, girls' school belonging was higher than…

Ennis, Robin Parks – ProQuest LLC, 2013
Students with emotional and behavioral disorders (E/BD) have academic deficits that affect their success in school; however, few researchers have investigated what strategies work best for this population, especially in the area of writing. One promising intervention to support the writing skills of students with and at-risk for E/BD is…

Karl, Andrew T.; Yang, Yan; Lohr, Sharon L. – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2013
Value-added models have been widely used to assess the contributions of individual teachers and schools to students' academic growth based on longitudinal student achievement outcomes. There is concern, however, that ignoring the presence of missing values, which are common in longitudinal studies, can bias teachers' value-added scores.…
