Background: In countries with German as an official language, children with German as a second language perform overall worse in school than their German native speaking peers. This particularly affects written language skills, which require advanced language knowledge. The reasons are manifold, but one is prominent, namely poor vocabulary…

Peng, Peng; Fuchs, Douglas; Fuchs, Lynn S.; Cho, Eunsoo; Elleman, Amy M.; Kearns, Devin M.; Patton, Samuel, III; Compton, Donald L. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2020
We conducted a secondary analysis of data from a randomized control trial to explore this question: Does "response/no response" best characterize students' reactions to a generally efficacious first-grade reading program, or is a more nuanced characterization necessary? Data were collected on 265 at-risk readers' word reading prior to…

All children were tested on non-verbal intelligence, working memory,…

Using reliable and valid measures of students' outcomes which are sensitive to change is critical for obtaining interpretable and therefore useful results from evaluations of school-based interventions. While measurement development for use in experimental evaluations receives a great deal of attention in the U.S., it lags behind in low-income…

Deacon, S. Hélène; Commissaire, Eva; Chen, Xi; Pasquarella, Adrian – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2013
As children learn to read, they become sensitive to the patterns that exist in the ways in which their language(s) are represented in print. This skill is known as orthographic processing. We examined the nature of orthographic processing in English and French for children in the first grade of a French immersion program, and the relationship…
