Stuart, Elizabeth A.; Olsen, Robert B.; Bell, Stephen H.; Orr, Larry L. – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2012
While there has been some increasing interest in external validity, most work to this point has been in assessing the similarity of a randomized trial sample and a population of interest (e.g., Stuart et al., 2010; Tipton, 2011). The goal of this research is to calculate empirical estimates of the external validity bias in educational intervention…

Towards a Reconceptualisation of "Word" for High Frequency Word Generation in Word Knowledge Studies
Sibanda, Jabulani; Baxen, Jean – Perspectives in Education, 2014
The present paper derives from a PhD study investigating the nexus between Grade 4 textbook vocabulary demands and Grade 3 isiXhosa-speaking learners' knowledge of that vocabulary to enable them to read to learn in Grade 4. The paper challenges the efficacy of the four current definitions of "word" for generating high frequency words…

Jaciw, Andrew; Ma, Boya; Zhao, Qingfeng – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2010
Randomized trials of educational interventions often face logistical hurdles (Cook, 2002). For example, sometimes they are prevented from reaching their full-term. This would happen if, as a condition of participation, subjects insist on receiving the treatment program within a certain timeframe. This timeframe may be shorter than the full-term…
