Burns, Matthew K.; VanDerHeyden, Amanda M.; Duesenberg-Marshall, McKinzie D.; Romero, Monica E.; Stevens, Mallory A.; Izumi, Jared T.; McCollom, Elizabeth M. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2023
Students with dyslexia demonstrate reading difficulty in early literacy skills (e.g., phonemic awareness, word recognition, decoding), and administering screeners is a necessary step to implement effective intervention. There are several commonly used reading screeners, but the decision accuracy and predictive value between them varies. In the…

Predicting Intervention Effects with Preintervention Measures of Decoding: Evidence for a Skill-by-Treatment Interaction with Kindergarten and First-Grade Students
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Burns, Matthew K.; Young, Helen; McCollom, Elizabeth M.; Stevens, Mallory A.; Izumi, Jared T. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2022
A skill-by-treatment interaction (STI) isolates skill deficits and manipulates conditions to match them to student needs. Based on the learning hierarchy, preintervention scores can help predict which intervention will be most successful for an individual student. This study compared the efficacy of a modeling and practice-based decoding…
