Husni Almoubayyed; Stephen E. Fancsali; Steve Ritter – Grantee Submission, 2023
Recent research seeks to develop more comprehensive learner models for adaptive learning software. For example, models of reading comprehension built using data from students' use of adaptive instructional software for mathematics have recently been developed. These models aim to deliver experiences that consider factors related to learning beyond…

Rand, Catherine L.; Rand, Muriel K. – International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2022
We examined how using five different simplified texts on the same subject would affect reading comprehension. 335 students in grades four through eight read one of five texts retrieved from Newsela.com and then completed a comprehension test. Results from a 3-way ANOVA showed no significant interaction among grade, reading level and text…

Emily Hamuka – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Narrative language skills are important for academic and social success. The ability to produce well-formed and coherent spoken narratives has been shown to be highly correlated with proficient reading and writing (Kirby, Spencer, & Chen, 2021; Spencer & Petersen, 2018; Petersen et al., 2020). The importance of narrative abilities for…

Jr. Dwight Vincent – ProQuest LLC, 2023
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between academic achievement and attendance. Reading proficiency is foundational to overall academic success. In this study, reading proficiency served as the operational definition for the level of student academic success. Out-of-school suspension is a disciplinary consequence as a result…

Ayesha Wallace – ProQuest LLC, 2022
More than 50% of sixth-grade students at an urban middle school in the Southeastern United States scored below the 50th percentile (B50PR) of expected student outcomes on the Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) Growth reading assessment. The problem to addressed in this study was that many sixth-grade students in the United States lack proficiency…

Edwards, Ashley A.; Steacy, Laura M.; Rigobon, Valeria M.; Petscher, Yaacov; Compton, Donald L. – Elementary School Journal, 2023
Perfetti's representational quality hypothesis suggests that orthographic learning in developing readers is associated with two important changes to the orthographic lexicon that drive continued word reading development, namely, addition of word-specific representations and acquisition of complex context-dependent decoding skills. Perfetti further…

Yalcin Bay – European Journal of Educational Sciences, 2023
One of the factors that emotionally affect the education-learning process is anxiety. Considering students' anxiety in teaching how to read and write, anxiety will positively contribute to effective and productive learning. This study aimed to determine the "Reading Anxiety" of primary school students. A 29-item "Reading Anxiety…

Tetzlaff, Leonard; Edelsbrunner, Peter; Schmitterer, Alexandra; Hartmann, Ulrike; Brod, Garvin – Educational Psychology Review, 2023
Demonstrating the differential effectiveness of instructional approaches for learners is difficult because learners differ on multiple dimensions. The present study tests a person-centered approach to investigating differential effectiveness, in this case of reading instruction. In N = 517 German third-grade students, latent profile analysis…

Eleni Vretudaki; Eufimia Tafa; George Manolitsis – International Journal of Early Years Education, 2023
This study examined whether particular practices in story retelling improve children's comprehension of story structure and enables them to further comment on the story content. Eighty-three (83) kindergarten children (M = 5.4) years old composed the experimental (N = 43) and the control (N = 40) groups. For 6 weeks, one time per week, six…

Floor Vandecruys; Maaike Vandermosten; Bert De Smedt – Developmental Science, 2024
Children's white matter development is driven by experience, yet it remains poorly understood how it is shaped by attending formal education. A small number of studies compared children before and after the start of formal schooling to understand this, yet they do not allow to separate maturational effects from schooling-related effects. A clever…

Mike Sleeman; John Everatt; Alison Arrow; Amanda Denston – Journal of Research in Reading, 2024
Background: This study explored the impact of different cut-off points used to identify children with reading difficulties on the distribution of these children across the three poor reader groups predicted by the simple view of reading (dyslexia, specific comprehension difficulty and mixed difficulty). Additionally, the study investigated whether…

Azucena Maria Parra – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Recent standardized state tests have revealed a consistent decline in reading scores across grade levels, forcing conversation about intervention in place to combat this. Developed using Vygotsky's theory of Zone of proximal development, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt's Read 180 reading intervention program promises to close reading gaps of up to two…

Farquharson, Kelly; Hogan, Tiffany P.; Fox, Annie B. – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2021
Background: Nonword repetition (NWR) is a common phonological processing task that is reported to tap into many cognitive, perceptual, and motor processes. For this reason, NWR is often used in assessment batteries to aid in verifying the presence of a reading or language disorder. Aims: To examine the extent to which child- and item-level factors…

Buchanan-Worster, Elizabeth; Hulme, Charles; Dennan, Rachel; MacSweeney, Mairéad – Developmental Science, 2021
Visual information conveyed by a speaking face aids speech perception. In addition, children's ability to comprehend visual-only speech (speechreading ability) is related to phonological awareness and reading skills in both deaf and hearing children. We tested whether training speechreading would improve speechreading, phoneme blending, and…

Joy, Jeena Mary; Venkatesh, Lakshmi; Mathew, Samuel N.; Narayanan, Swapna – Journal of Research in Reading, 2023
Background: Learning to read is a complex process that involves phonological and orthographic processing abilities, broader language skills and cognitive processes across all writing systems. Although these components remain common, the pace of acquisition of phonological and orthographic processing and reading abilities differ across writing…
