Holopainen, Annaleena; de Veld, Daniëlle M. J.; Hoddenbach, Elske; Begeer, Sander – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
Youth with ASD often show limited or atypical empathic responsiveness. The direct effects of social skills interventions on enhancing empathic responsiveness is unknown. Data from a randomized controlled trial were used to investigate whether a Theory of Mind training improves the empathic responsiveness, measured through structured observations.…

Qian, Xueqin; Larson, Sheryl A.; Tichá, Renáta; Stancliffe, Roger; Pettingell, Sandra L. – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2019
Two non-U.S. quasi-experimental studies reported Active Support training was associated with increased engagement in individuals with IDD, but no randomized controlled trials (RCTs) exist. We evaluated effects of Active Support training on staff assistance, and social and nonsocial engagement in 75 individuals with intellectual and developmental…

Koutsouris, G.; Norwich, B.; Stebbing, J. – Cambridge Journal of Education, 2019
The significance of a process evaluation for understanding randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of complex teaching interventions in a classroom setting is discussed in relation to the evaluation of the Integrated Group Reading (IGR) programme trial. This process evaluation is based on realist principles and draws on different data sources. The…

Pashley, Nicole E.; Miratrix, Luke W. – Grantee Submission, 2019
In the causal inference literature, evaluating blocking from a potential outcomes perspective has two main branches of work. The first focuses on larger blocks, with multiple treatment and control units in each block. The second focuses on matched pairs, with a single treatment and control unit in each block. These literatures not only provide…

Cho, Evelyn; Strawhun, Jenna; Owens, Sarah A.; Tugendrajch, Siena K.; M. Hawley, Kristin – School Psychology Review, 2021
Better integration of evidence-based practices (EBPs) in schools can improve access to effective youth mental health care. However, EBPs typically developed and tested within clinics may not be feasible for school-based implementation. We conducted a small randomized trial comparing Show Me FIRST, a brief intervention designed for efficient uptake…

Zuchao Shen; Chris Curran; You You; Joni Splett; Huibin Zhang – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2021
Purpose: Key considerations in designing multilevel experimental studies are to efficiently use resources and to determine the sample size allocation such that designs have adequate statistical power. The utility of optimal sampling and power analysis results depends on accurate information about design parameters, such as intraclass correlations…

Power for Detecting Treatment by Moderator Effects in Two- and Three-Level Cluster Randomized Trials
Spybrook, Jessaca; Kelcey, Benjamin; Dong, Nianbo – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2016
Recently, there has been an increase in the number of cluster randomized trials (CRTs) to evaluate the impact of educational programs and interventions. These studies are often powered for the main effect of treatment to address the "what works" question. However, program effects may vary by individual characteristics or by context,…

Rodgers, Lucy; Harding, Sam; Rees, Rachel; Clarke, Michael T. – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
Background: Recent evidence suggests that pre-school children with co-occurring phonological speech sound disorder (SSD) and expressive language difficulties are at a higher risk of ongoing communication and literacy needs in comparison with children with these difficulties in isolation. However, to date there has been no systematic or scoping…

Parents of children with ASD (N = 86; mean age 44.8 months; 67 boys) were randomized to either WHO Caregiver Skills Training (CST) delivered in public health settings in Italy or enhanced treatment-as-usual. Primary blinded outcomes were 3-months post-intervention change scores of autism severity and engagement during caregiver-child interaction.…

Finucane, Mariel McKenzie; Martinez, Ignacio; Cody, Scott – American Journal of Evaluation, 2018
In the coming years, public programs will capture even more and richer data than they do now, including data from web-based tools used by participants in employment services, from tablet-based educational curricula, and from electronic health records for Medicaid beneficiaries. Program evaluators seeking to take full advantage of these data…

Kutywayo, A.; Yah, C. S.; Naidoo, N. P.; Malotana, M.; Dyani, S.; Mullick, S. – SAGE Open, 2018
The Good Participatory Practice (GPP) guidelines provide a framework for stakeholder engagement within clinical trials, to ensure a study's acceptability, feasibility, and improving the overall research quality; however, they have rarely been applied beyond this setting, and no literature exists on its application in adolescent research. A review…

Stuart, Elizabeth A.; Ackerman, Benjamin; Westreich, Daniel – Research on Social Work Practice, 2018
Randomized trials play an important role in estimating the effect of a policy or social work program in a given population. While most trial designs benefit from strong internal validity, they often lack external validity, or generalizability, to the target population of interest. In other words, one can obtain an unbiased estimate of the study…

Al Otaiba, Stephanie; Petscher, Yaacov; Wanzek, Jeanne; Lan, Patrick; Rivas, Brenna – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2018
This article summarizes findings from a two-year randomized control trial, focusing on a subset of 194 fourth graders with reading comprehension scores at or below the 15th percentile. Students in the treatment condition received an average of 94 daily 30-min sessions of small group intervention implemented with fidelity by well-trained research…

Dong, Nianbo; Kelcey, Benjamin; Spybrook, Jessaca – Journal of Experimental Education, 2018
Researchers are often interested in whether the effects of an intervention differ conditional on individual- or group-moderator variables such as children's characteristics (e.g., gender), teacher's background (e.g., years of teaching), and school's characteristics (e.g., urbanity); that is, the researchers seek to examine for whom and under what…

Alexa Budavari; Heather McDaniel; Antonio Morgan-Lopez; Lissette Saavedra; Anna Yaros; John Lochman; Catherine Bradshaw – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2023
Background: It has become increasingly important to shift education research and programming from a deficit focused perspective to a positive youth development perspective in order to identify and promote factors that support students' positive functioning and outcomes. One outgrowth of positive youth development is Positive Mental Health (PMH),…
