Direct linkDavis, Dawn H.; Gagne, Phill; Fredrick, Laura D.; Alberto, Paul A.; Waugh, Rebecca E.; Haardorfer, Regine – Behavior Modification, 2013
The purpose of this article is to demonstrate how hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) can be used to enhance visual analysis of single-case research (SCR) designs. First, the authors demonstrated the use of growth modeling via HLM to augment visual analysis of a sophisticated single-case study. Data were used from a delayed multiple baseline…

Fredrick, Laura D.; Davis, Dawn H.; Alberto, Paul A.; Waugh, Rebecca E. – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2013
Reading instruction for students with MoID is typically limited to sight-word instruction. We developed a 2-part, phonetic instructional sequence based upon Direct Instruction teaching methodology to teach students with MoID word-analysis skills that generalize to untaught words encountered in their environment. Elementary and middle-school…

Alberto, Paul A.; Waugh, Rebecca E.; Fredrick, Laura D.; Davis, Dawn H. – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2013
Reviews of the research on literacy for students with moderate intellectual disability indicated that sight-word instruction continues to be their primary mode of reading instruction. Reported in this article are data supporting the Sight-Word Component of the larger Integrated Literacy Curriculum for Students with Moderate to Severe Intellectual…

Waugh, Rebecca E.; Alberto, Paul A.; Fredrick, Laura D. – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2011
Simultaneous prompting is an errorless learning strategy designed to reduce the number of errors students make; however, research has shown a disparity in the number of errors students make during instructional versus probe trials. This study directly examined the effects of error correction versus no error correction during probe trials on the…

Alberto, Paul A.; Waugh, Rebecca E.; Fredrick, Laura D. – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2010
Sight-word instruction is the most common method of reading instruction for students with Moderate Intellectual Disabilities reported in the research literature. The purpose of this study was to go beyond instruction of single word units to instruction of multiple-word phrases. This study demonstrated the instruction of reading and comprehending…

Waugh, Rebecca E.; Fredrick, Laura D.; Alberto, Paul A. – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2009
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of simultaneous prompting on acquisition of letter-sound correspondences and blending skills of previously taught words for three elementary students with moderate intellectual disabilities, and to measure generalization of those skills to untaught words. The three students were first taught to…
