Chen, Yi-Jui Iva; Irey, Robin; Cunningham, Anne E. – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2018
The goal of this study was to test the item-based assumption of the self-teaching hypothesis by reanalyzing Cunningham's (2006) data. In Cunningham's study, 37 first graders participated in a self-teaching experiment, and their orthographic learning was measured by a spelling task and an orthographic choice task. A 2-level logistic regression…

Vanderwood, Michael L.; Tung, Catherine Y.; Checca, C. Jason – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2014
The predictive validity and accuracy of an oral reading fluency (ORF) measure for a statewide assessment in English language arts was examined for second-grade native English speakers (NESs) and English learners (ELs) with varying levels of English proficiency. In addition to comparing ELs with native English speakers, the impact of English…

Jimerson, Shane R.; Hong, Sehee; Stage, Scott; Gerber, Michael – Journal of New Approaches in Educational Research, 2013
Students' oral reading fluency growth from first through fourth grade was used to predict their achievement on the Stanford Achievement Test (9th ed.; SAT-9 Reading) using a latent growth model. Two conditional variables related to student status were used to determine the effects on reading performance--English language learners (ELLs) with low…
