Yue Xia; Ruibo Xie; Xinchun Wu; Thi Phuong Nguyen; Zhenliang Wang – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2024
Examining changes in the longitudinal relationship between vocabulary knowledge and three types of morphological awareness (MA), a cross-lagged design was conducted with a sample of 146 Chinese children. Homophone awareness, homograph awareness, compounding awareness, and vocabulary knowledge were measured in grades 1 (T1), 2 (T2), and 3 (T3),…

Fangyan Chen; Yabo Ge; Yiwen Zhang; Sheng Song; Wenjun Xu – Psychology in the Schools, 2025
The field of education has long emphasized the importance of kindergarten teachers perceiving and understanding students' thoughts and feelings and expressing concern, commonly referred to as teacher empathy. However, little work has focused on the "cost of caring," such as compassion fatigue, particularly among kindergarten teachers,…

Xueke Wang; Tingyong Feng – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2024
An overarching framework in the field of developmental psychology highlights the close linkage of cognition with emotion; however, the extent to which this framework supports the relationship between executive functions and emotion understanding in young children remains unclear. Hence, we employ a longitudinal tracking study to investigate the…

Alisha Wackerle-Hollman; Robin Hojnoski; Kristen Missall; Mohammed A. A. Abuela; Kristin Running – Assessment for Effective Intervention, 2024
Early literacy skill development predicts later reading success, and development of skills in specific domains during the preschool years has been established as both a prerequisite and precursory for reading. Early literacy assessments typically include measures of separate skills across domains, and results can assist with determining where…

Elizabeth A. Stevens; Audrey J. Leroux; Sarah R. Powell – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2024
This study reports a secondary analysis from a randomized control trial study conducted with third graders with mathematics difficulty (MD; N = 75). We used simple linear regression to investigate whether students' performance on a word-problem vocabulary assessment predicted their performance on a measure of word-problem solving. Additionally, we…

Paola Andrea Guerrero-Rosada; Christina Weiland; Catherine Snow; Meghan McCormick – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
Background: Universal Prekindergarten (UPK) programs often expand by offering Pre-K in both public schools and in community-based providers (CBOs). This approach gives families more options and allow UPK programs to increase access more quickly. However, little is known about which CBOs select into these systems. This is an important gap in the…

Alfredo Bautista; Kate E. Williams; Kerry Lee; Siu-Ping Ng – Journal of Early Childhood Teacher Education, 2024
Self-regulation is arguably one of the most crucial predictors of school readiness, academic achievement, and lifelong well-being. While educators in the prior-to-school years have a pivotal role to play in stimulating growth in early self-regulation, less is known about their knowledge and practices in this area. This interview study was…

Zachary T. Barnes; Ashley A. Edwards; Susanne Strachota; Yi Feng; Jessica Logan – Infant and Child Development, 2024
A student's socioeconomic status (SES) has a significant relation to their academic achievement. Much of this work has explored this in math and reading, but less is known about how SES relates to science achievement, particularly in the early grades. Using quantile regression with nationally representative data, we explored this relation in…

Monica E. Romero; ChenYu Hung; Stephen D. Whitney – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2025
Using a national database, this study examined the relationship between the language of instruction models and the frequency of peer-mediated learning activity on English learners' reading achievement (N = 1,004). Results from the Multilevel Modeling (MLM) analyses revealed an interaction between the language of instruction and the frequency of…

This study investigates the role of diglossic and orthographic features in reading comprehension in Arabic. Specifically, it probes the independent contribution of language, metalinguistic, and decoding skills in the spoken language and in Standard Arabic to reading comprehension in the "abjad" writing system of Arabic. A sample of 112…

This article examines the impact of within-class age differences on educational outcomes, using students' birth months in Madrid's primary schools as a natural experiment. Employing a regression discontinuity design, we analyze third-grade students to investigate these age-related effects. Additionally, we explore whether early childhood education…

Cristina de-la-Peña – Journal of New Approaches in Educational Research, 2024
Reading comprehension is a fundamental skill to be developed from the early stages of reading acquisition and it is essential for both formative and personal learning. This study examines eye-tracking as a useful and complementary tool in the assessment and improvement of implicit reading comprehension. The aim is to understand the role of…

Although teacher social-emotional competence (SEC) has been recognized as a crucial indicator of teacher professional development as well as an effective predictor of their psychological well-being, little is known about how teachers' SEC contributes to job burnout. The objectives of the present research were to explore the impact of SEC on job…

The effectiveness of Tier 2 interventions may depend on the variability of student skills within an intervention group. We investigated the effect of initial variability within intervention groups using data from a large-scale study of ROOTS, a Tier 2 kindergarten mathematics intervention. Our research questions were as follows: Does mathematics…
