Young-Suk Grace Kim; Karen R. Harris; Rebecca Goldstone; April Camping; Steve Graham – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2025
Purpose: We conducted a randomized control trial of an instructional program, SRSD Plus, which integrates reading for writing to inform, writing, oral language, spelling and handwriting for students in Grades 1 and 2. Method: A total of 10 teachers and their 248 students in Grade 1 (n = 121) and Grade 2 (n = 127) in the southwestern part of the US…

Paige, David D.; Smith, Grant; Rupley, William; Wells, Will – Literacy Research and Instruction, 2021
This cross-sectional study measures decoding and fluent reading skills of a random sample of 250 first- through third-grade students attending a high-SES school. Growth was compared between proficient and struggling readers with results showing the latter group significantly behind their higher attaining peers on all measures. When student…

Morphemes, the smallest meaning-bearing units of language, recur in many words. Therefore, morphological knowledge can facilitate the comprehension of novel words. This study tested the effectiveness of a morphological training program on children's learning and retention of exposed words and morphologically related unexposed words compared with…

McTigue, Erin M.; Schwippert, Knut; Uppstad, Per Henning; Lundetrae, Kjersti; Solheim, Oddny Judith – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2021
Research consistently documents that girls outperform boys in literacy achievement, yet, when considering the starting point--early literacy--we do not have consensus on the origin, meaningful nature, or persistence of such differences. In this two-part study analyzing 5,816 Norwegian students (48.1% girls, average age of 6.1 years), we first…

Steacy, Laura M.; Petscher, Yaacov; Elliott, James D.; Smith, Kathryn; Rigobon, Valeria M.; Abes, Daniel R.; Edwards, Ashley A.; Himelhoch, Alexandra C.; Rueckl, Jay G.; Compton, Donald L. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2021
We modeled word reading growth in typically developing (n = 118) and children with dyslexia (n = 20), Grades 2-5, across multiple exposures to 30 words. We explored the facilitative versus inhibitory effects of exposures to differential mixes of words that support high- versus low-frequency vowel pronunciations. One training corpus contained a…

Denton, Carolyn A.; Montroy, Janelle J.; Zucker, Tricia A.; Cannon, Grace – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2021
The purpose of this feasibility study was to inform the development of an intervention to support reading and self-regulation for students with significant reading difficulties and disabilities (RDs), including dyslexia. Participants were 21 special educators, dyslexia specialists, and reading interventionists and 48 students in Grades 2 to 4.…
