This meta-analysis evaluated experimental studies testing the effectiveness of the "Self-Determined Learning Model of Instruction" (SDLMI) to improve the academic and nonacademic behaviors of students with disabilities. A total of 19 single-case experimental design studies and four group design studies met inclusion criteria. Overall,…

Wireless remote microphones (WRM) are used as secondary assistive listening devices for students with hearing aids or cochlear implants to limit the negative effects of noise and distance for understanding speech. WRM technology is not yet widespread in the Czech Republic. The aim of this study was to use teachers' perspectives to compare the…

Intervening to enhance self-determination has been linked to enhanced in-school outcomes (e.g., academic and transition goal attainment and access to general education) and post-school outcomes (e.g., competitive employment, community participation) for students with and without disabilities in inclusive schools. However, research is needed to…

The menarche age in girls with intellectual disability and high support needs (HSN) is approximately the same as in girls with typical development. However, there is no clear teaching procedure for menstrual hygiene management (MHM) skills before menarche. This study examined whether a menstrual education program that focuses on visual support…

Even in the age of spellcheck and other assistive tools, spelling remains an important skill. Learning how to spell can be challenging, especially for students with high-incidence disabilities. Fortunately, tools such as graphic organizers may assist students with spelling. In this study, we evaluated the effects of a novel flowchart tool on…

Single-case comparative studies could help identify efficient instructional procedures for individuals with disabilities. However, previous literature reported inconsistent efficiency results if multiple comparisons were conducted, indicating that within-participant replication was uncommon. In this review, we examined single-case comparative…

The current study examined the efficacy and efficiency of incorporating instructive feedback within matrix training to teach children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to label common characters and cities. Experimenters taught one set of responses using a non-overlapping matrix, a second set of responses using an overlapping matrix, and a third…

This study assessed the effectiveness of a program aimed at improving the early numeracy skills of students with moderate intellectual disability. The persistence of the acquired skills and the program's impact on learning were monitored. Feedback from the students and their mothers was also gathered. Using a multiple-probe design across subjects,…

Neurodivergent students, including autistic students, often benefit from faculty support to navigate college challenges. To better equip faculty in their interactions with neurodivergent students and enhance their understanding, NeuroPREP, a faculty training program was developed. Comprising four 20-min modules, NeuroPREP addresses key topics…

With the widespread use of mobile and self-service technology in everyday living, acquiring independent living skills associated with the use of current technology (e.g., self-checkout, mobile payment) is increasingly important for successful community integration. The purpose of this study was to investigate the use of a picture activity schedule…

Purposes: The effect of intervening on narrative skills in Chinese-speaking school-age children with developmental language disorder (DLD) is underexplored. Methods: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of narrative intervention on written narratives of Chinese children with and without DLD and to explore the potential…

Extended diaper wearing may limit access to inclusive opportunities including general education settings, summer camps, community-based programming, and job opportunities. Toilet training may be delayed due to more pressing concerns, such as challenging behavior. Individualized education plans should include toilet training children with…

Students with reading disabilities generally know fewer words (breadth) with less in-depth knowledge of those words (depth) than typical students. The present study examined the effects of a "moderately rich vocabulary instruction" in which both breadth and depth of vocabulary are addressed. Nineteen U.S. 4th- and 5th-grade students with…

Children with developmental dyslexia (DD) display partially preserved morphology skills which they rely upon for reading and spelling. Therefore, we conducted explicit and intensive training of derivational morphology in French and Swiss individuals with DD, ages 9 to 14 years, in order to assess its effect on: morphological awareness, reading…

Purpose: This study aimed to explore the effect of family-professional partnerships in adapted physical education on the fundamental motor skills, physical activity levels, and adaptive behaviors of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and on parental satisfaction. Methods: A randomized controlled trial design was used, with pre-and…
