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…

Smail Layes; Sana Tibi; Marjolaine Cohen; Linda Lombardino – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2024
This study examined the relationships between word reading and rapid automatized naming (RAN) for objects and letters in Arabic-speaking children with and without dyslexia to determine potential modulating effects of color on naming by comparing children's performance on color and black-white RAN plates. Participants were 114 Arabic-speaking third…

Ronimus, Miia M. S.; Tolvanen, Asko J.; Ketonen, Ritva H. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2023
Self-efficacious children are expected to be more task-focused in challenging achievement situations and consequently have better chances of overcoming learning difficulties than children who have lower self-efficacy. The present study investigates this presumption with Finnish-speaking first graders struggling with reading acquisition (N = 285).…

Younger, Rachel; Meisinger, Elizabeth B. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2022
This study examined the Double-Deficit Hypothesis (DDH) by classifying students with dyslexia into four distinct groups, comparing group differences on text-level reading tasks, and examining group stability across one school year (fall to spring). Elementary students (N = 109) were administered measures of reading fluency, reading comprehension,…

Meisinger, Elizabeth B.; Breazeale, Ashley M.; Davis, Lyle H. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2022
The purpose of this study was to examine whether group-based differences exist in word- and text-level reading in a clinical sample of students with dyslexia, and to shed light on the cognitive processes supporting these essential skills. Second- through seventh-grade students were administered a battery of standardized measures of cognitive…

Wang, Li-Chih – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2020
The relationships among visual and auditory temporal processing, rapid naming, and oral reading fluency in Chinese children with and without dyslexia were examined. Primary school-aged Chinese children with dyslexia (N = 47) and chronological-age-matched controls (N = 47) were recruited. Temporal processing, rapid naming, oral reading fluency,…

Robinson, Melissa F.; Meisinger, Elizabeth B.; Joyner, Rachel E. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2019
This study examined the effects of reading modality (oral vs. silent) on comprehension in elementary school students with a specific learning disability in reading (N = 77). A 2 (development-level) × 2 (reading modality) × 2 (time) mixed factorial analysis of variance (ANOVA) was conducted to determine the influence of these variables on…

Denton, Carolyn A.; Montroy, Janelle J.; Zucker, Tricia A.; Cannon, Grace – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2021
The purpose of this feasibility study was to inform the development of an intervention to support reading and self-regulation for students with significant reading difficulties and disabilities (RDs), including dyslexia. Participants were 21 special educators, dyslexia specialists, and reading interventionists and 48 students in Grades 2 to 4.…
