Andrade, Paulo E.; Müllensiefen, Daniel; Andrade, Olga V. C. A.; Dunstan, Jade; Zuk, Jennifer; Gaab, Nadine – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2024
Musical abilities, both in the pitch and temporal dimension, have been shown to be positively associated with phonological awareness and reading abilities in both children and adults. There is increasing evidence that the relationship between music and language relies primarily on the temporal dimension, including both meter and rhythm. It remains…

Daniel, Johny; Barth, Amy – Annals of Dyslexia, 2023
This study investigates the reading profiles of rural Grade 5 and 6 students (N = 262), a sample with a high proportion of English language learners. We administered a battery of reading and cognitive assessments to classify students' reading profiles and evaluate if performance on cognitive measures predicted membership in particular profiles.…

Tuire Koponen; Kenneth Eklund; Kaisa Aunola; Anna-Maija Poikkeus; Marja-Kristiina Lerkkanen; Minna Torppa – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2025
The long-term negative consequences of learning difficulties have been acknowledged. Nonetheless, research is still scarce regarding the prediction of adolescent difficulties in reading and arithmetic skills. The present study examines at which age phase and with what kind of constellation of parent- and child-related factors can adolescent…

Daniel, Johny; Vaughn, Sharon; Roberts, Gregory; Grills, Amie – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2022
To address the needs of a diverse group of students with reading difficulties, a majority of researchers over the last decade have designed and implemented multicomponent reading interventions (MCRIs) that provide instruction in multiple areas of reading yielding mixed results. The current study evaluates whether students' baseline word reading…

Bagazi, Afrah – International Journal of Education and Practice, 2022
This study investigates the relationship between reading self-concept and motivation among a group of male and female students with reading difficulties, also exploring this according to gender variables. The paper also seeks to determine to what extent reading self-concept can predict reading motivation among these target students. The study…

Valdois, Sylviane; Reilhac, Caroline; Ginestet, Emilie; Line Bosse, Marie – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2021
A wide share of secondary school children does not reach the expected competence level in reading. These children could benefit from more efficient intervention responses, providing a better understanding of their cognitive weaknesses/deficits. Our aim was to explore the cognitive heterogeneity of a population of poor readers identified from a…

Hendricks, Emma Lu – ProQuest LLC, 2019
This study's primary purpose was to identify predictors of response to a multi-component reading comprehension intervention in a sample of poor readers in grades 4-5. Additional study aims were to explore (a) the utility of various methods (e.g., "growth" versus "final status") and measures (e.g., "near-transfer"…

Macdonald, Kelly T.; Cirino, Paul T.; Miciak, Jeremy; Grills, Amie E. – Reading & Writing Quarterly, 2021
Cognitive predictors of reading are well known, but less is understood about the roles of "noncognitive" factors, including emotional variables such as anxiety. While "math" anxiety has been a focus of study, its analogue in the reading literature is understudied. We assessed struggling fourth and fifth graders (n = 272) on…

Cho, Eunsoo; Toste, Jessica R.; Lee, Minhye; Ju, Unhee – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2019
Reading for understanding is a challenging task for many upper elementary struggling readers, and their attitudes toward such challenges can make a difference in their subsequent engagement and reading achievement. Mindset and achievement goals provide a useful explanatory framework for understanding struggling readers' engagement and reading…

Jody Samuels – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Reading fluency involves a complex interaction of different cognitive skills and abilities that develop with instruction and practice and relies on the automaticity of many distinct reading skills (e.g., pacing, word recognition, expression, phonological awareness). Fluent reading frees cognitive resources, such as working memory, for more…

Vaughn, Sharon; Capin, Philip; Scammacca, Nancy; Roberts, Greg; Cirino, Paul; Fletcher, Jack M. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2020
This study examines the initial word reading performance of fourth-grade struggling readers and the extent to which differing levels of word reading performance at pretest influenced their response to reading interventions. A large group of students with significant reading comprehension difficulties (N = 481) were classified into three clusters…

Peng, Peng; Fuchs, Douglas; Fuchs, Lynn S.; Elleman, Amy M.; Kearns, Devin M.; Gilbert, Jennifer K.; Compton, Donald L.; Cho, Eunsoo; Patton, Samuel – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2019
This study explored the developmental trajectories and predictors of word reading and reading comprehension among young at-risk readers. In fall of first grade, 185 students identified as at-risk for reading difficulties were assessed on measures of domain-specific skills (phonological awareness, letter knowledge, and vocabulary), domain-general…

Kanniainen, Laura; Kiili, Carita; Tolvanen, Asko; Aro, Mikko; Leppänen, Paavo H. T. – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2019
The present study evaluated the extent to which literacy skills (reading fluency, written spelling, and reading comprehension), together with nonverbal reasoning, prior knowledge, and gender, are related to students' online research and comprehension (ORC) performance. The ORC skills of 426 sixth graders were measured using a Finnish adaptation of…

Allahverdi, Fatima Zehra – ProQuest LLC, 2018
Many students struggle to understand what they read. The purpose of my study was to determine the relationship between teachers' instruction of three processes believed to help readers to become more engaged (purpose setting, questioning, and predicting), students' use of these engaged reader processes, and students' comprehension development. My…
