Direct linkAustin, Christy R.; Boucher, Alexis N. – Intervention in School and Clinic, 2022
Despite strong theoretical and empirical evidence suggesting that word meaning knowledge plays a critical role in word reading, interventions for students with word reading difficulties and disabilities frequently target word reading instruction in isolation. This article connects reading theory to practice by describing one approach to integrate…

Filderman, Marissa J.; Austin, Christy R.; Boucher, Alexis N.; O'Donnell, Katherine; Swanson, Elizabeth A. – Exceptional Children, 2022
Informed by theories of reading comprehension and prior reviews of reading comprehension intervention, this meta-analysis uniquely contributes to the literature because it describes the relative effects of various approaches to comprehension intervention for struggling readers in Grades 3 through 12. Findings from 64 studies demonstrate…

Austin, Christy R.; Vaughn, Sharon; Clemens, Nathan H.; Pustejovsky, James E.; Boucher, Alexis N. – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2022
This within-subjects experimental study investigated the relative effects of word reading and word meaning instruction (WR+WM) compared to word-reading instruction alone (WR) on the accuracy, fluency, and word meaning knowledge of 4th-5th graders with dyslexia. We matched word lists on syllables, phonemes, frequency, number of definitions, and…

We investigated whether individual differences in overall receptive vocabulary knowledge measured at the beginning of the year moderated the effects of a kindergarten vocabulary intervention that supplemented classroom vocabulary instruction. We also examined whether moderation would offset the benefits of providing Tier-2 vocabulary intervention…

Stewart, Alicia A.; Austin, Christy R. – Remedial and Special Education, 2020
Empirical evidence suggests inattention and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are related to reading fluency, reading comprehension, and academic failure. Students with ADHD are served in both general and special education settings, but limited research explores effective reading interventions for this population. The purpose of this…

Swanson, Elizabeth; Austin, Christy R.; Stewart, Alicia A.; Scammacca, Nancy – Reading & Writing Quarterly, 2020
To better understand the impact of using e-books on students' reading outcomes, we conducted a meta-analysis of 14 studies with students in grades K-12 published between 2007 and 2018. Findings revealed an average effect size across all studies and reading outcomes of 0.9 that did not differ significantly from zero. There was also no statistically…

Austin, Christy R.; Wanzek, Jeanne; Scammacca, Nancy K.; Vaughn, Sharon; Gesel, Samantha A.; Donegan, Rachel E.; Engelmann, Morgan L. – Exceptional Children, 2019
Empirical studies investigating supplemental reading interventions for students with or at risk for reading disabilities in the early elementary grades have demonstrated a range of effect sizes. Identifying the findings from high-quality research can provide greater certainty of findings related to the effectiveness of supplemental reading…

Filderman, Marissa J.; Austin, Christy R.; Toste, Jessica R. – Intervention in School and Clinic, 2019
The process of implementing intensive reading interventions using data-based decision-making (DBDM) becomes increasingly challenging as students move into the secondary grades and reading tasks correspondingly become more complex. This article provides teachers with guidelines to support effective implementation of DBDM for students with or at…

Hall, Colby; Vaughn, Sharon; Barnes, Marcia A.; Stewart, Alicia A.; Austin, Christy R.; Roberts, Greg – Remedial and Special Education, 2020
Inference skill is one of the most important predictors of reading comprehension. Still, there is little rigorous research investigating the effects of inference instruction on reading comprehension. There is no research investigating the effects of inference instruction on reading comprehension for English learners with reading comprehension…

Swanson, Elizabeth; Stevens, Elizabeth A.; Scammacca, Nancy K.; Capin, Philip; Stewart, Alicia A.; Austin, Christy R. – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2017
Understanding the efficacy of evidence-based reading practices delivered in the Tier 1 (i.e. general classroom) setting is critical to successful implementation of multi-tiered systems, meeting a diverse range of student learning needs, and providing high quality reading instruction across content areas. This meta-analysis presents evidence on the…
