Direct linkChatoupis, Constantine C.; Vagenas, George – Physical Educator, 2017
We investigated the effectiveness of two teaching formats that fall under the canopy of Mosston and Ashworth's (2008) practice style, on fifth grade students' motor skill performance and task engagement. Both formats are also known as station teaching or learning centers. In the teacher-rotated format (TR), the teacher decides the amount of time…

Rubin, Allen; Yu, Miao – Research on Social Work Practice, 2017
This article provides benchmark data on within-group effect sizes from published randomized clinical trials that supported the efficacy of problem-solving therapy (PST) for depression among adults. Benchmarks are broken down by type of depression (major or minor), type of outcome measure (interview or self-report scale), whether PST was provided…

Chan, Wendy – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2017
Recent methods to improve generalizations from nonrandom samples typically invoke assumptions such as the strong ignorability of sample selection, which is challenging to meet in practice. Although researchers acknowledge the difficulty in meeting this assumption, point estimates are still provided and used without considering alternative…

Coutinho, Franzina; Bosisio, Marie-Elaine; Brown, Emma J.; Rishikof, Stephanie; Skaf, Elise; Freedin, Erin; Kelly, Shannon; Dahan-Oliel, Noemie – Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, 2017
Technological advancements are leading occupational therapists to alter traditional methods of addressing intervention with clients by incorporating intervention tools like the iPad to enhance rehabilitation and improve participation in the everyday activities of children they engage with as a means of increasing motivation and interest. The use…

Zhong, Connie S.; Melendez-Torres, G. J. – Health Education Journal, 2017
Background: Adolescents with asthma face unique challenges due to hormonal changes, psychosocial development and healthcare transition. Peer-led self-management programmes may increase treatment adherence and social adjustment by addressing these challenges. The purpose of this study was to assess whether peer-led self-management programmes…

Williford, Amanda P.; LoCasale-Crouch, Jennifer; Whittaker, Jessica Vick; DeCoster, Jamie; Hartz, Karyn A.; Carter, Lauren M.; Wolcott, Catherine Sanger; Hatfield, Bridget E. – Child Development, 2017
A randomized controlled trial was used to examine the impact of an attachment-based, teacher-child, dyadic intervention (Banking Time) to improve children's externalizing behavior. Participants included 183 teachers and 470 preschool children (3-4 years of age). Classrooms were randomly assigned to Banking Time, child time, or business as usual…

Heyvaert, Mieke; Moeyaert, Mariola; Verkempynck, Paul; Van den Noortgate, Wim; Vervloet, Marlies; Ugille, Maaike; Onghena, Patrick – Journal of Experimental Education, 2017
This article reports on a Monte Carlo simulation study, evaluating two approaches for testing the intervention effect in replicated randomized AB designs: two-level hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) and using the additive method to combine randomization test "p" values (RTcombiP). Four factors were manipulated: mean intervention effect,…

Slater, Jonathan S.; Parks, Michael J.; Malone, Michael E.; Henly, George A.; Nelson, Christina L. – Health Education & Behavior, 2017
Financial incentives are being used increasingly to encourage a wide array of health behaviors because of their well-established efficacy. However, little is known about how to translate incentive-based strategies to public health practice geared toward improving population-level health, and a dearth of research exists on how individuals respond…

This randomized controlled trial examined the efficacy of peer network interventions to improve the social connections of 47 high school students with severe disabilities. School staff invited, trained, and supported 192 peers without disabilities to participate in individualized social groups that met throughout one semester. Compared to…

Nilchian, Firoozeh; Shakibaei, Fereshteh; Jarah, Zeinab Taghi – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2017
This study was aimed to evaluate the impact of visual pedagogy in dental check-ups and preventive practices among children with autism aged 6-12. In this randomized double-blind clinical trial, the cooperation of 40 children with autism age 6-12. The selected children were equally divided into two groups of case and control (n = 20). The obtained…

Goeb, Joseph Christopher – ProQuest LLC, 2017
Many goods carry health risks that have important impacts on demand and behavior. However, the risks are rarely transparent and, as a result, consumers often have incomplete knowledge of the health risks associated with many of their consumption decisions. This can lead to inefficient behavior. With that in mind, economists have studied the…

Bayesian statistical methods have become more feasible to implement with advances in computing but are not commonly used in educational research. In contrast to frequentist approaches that take hypotheses (and the associated parameters) as fixed, Bayesian methods take data as fixed and hypotheses as random. This difference means that Bayesian…

Evaluating the impact of complex whole-school interventions (CWSIs) is challenging. However, what evidence there is suggests that school leadership and other elements of whole-school contexts are important for pupils' attainment (Leithwood et al., 2006), suggesting that interventions aimed at changing these have significant potential to improve…

Weiss, Michael J.; Lockwood, J. R.; McCaffrey, Daniel F. – MDRC, 2014
In many experimental evaluations in the social and medical sciences, individuals are randomly assigned to a treatment arm or a control arm of the experiment. After treatment assignment is determined, individuals within one or both experimental arms are frequently grouped together (e.g., within classrooms or schools, through shared case managers,…
