Yu, Tianqi; Lin, Lifeng; Furuya-Kanamori, Luis; Xu, Chang – Research Synthesis Methods, 2022
In evidence-based practice, new topics generally only have a few studies available for synthesis. As a result, the evidence of such meta-analyses raised substantial concerns. We investigated the robustness of the evidence from these earliest studies. Real-world data from the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (CDSR) were collected. We…

Allen, Justin P.; Kim, Eui Kyung; Jimerson, Shane R. – School Psychology Review, 2023
Meta-analyses and structured reviews provide a synthesis of the results of multiple studies, thus offering unique contributions to informing practice and advancing science in the field of school psychology. High-quality meta-analyses and structured reviews include a review and summary of the extant studies and highlight clear directions for future…

Tamim, Rana M.; Borokhovski, Evgueni; Bernard, Robert M.; Schmid, Richard F.; Abrami, Philip C.; Pickup, David I. – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2021
As the empirical literature in educational technology continues to grow, meta-analyses are increasingly being used to synthesise research to inform practice. However, not all meta-analyses are equal. To examine their evolution over the past 30 years, this study systematically analysed the quality of 52 meta-analyses (1988-2017) on educational…

Weise, Alina; Büchter, Roland; Pieper, Dawid; Mathes, Tim – Research Synthesis Methods, 2020
Background: Evidence syntheses provide the basis for evidence-based decision making in healthcare. To judge the certainty of findings for the specific decision context evidence syntheses should consider context suitability (ie, generalizability, external validity, applicability or transferability). Our objective was to determine the status quo and…

Wolgemuth, Jennifer R.; Hicks, Tyler; Agosto, Vonzell – Educational Researcher, 2017
Research syntheses in education, particularly meta-analyses and best-evidence syntheses, identify evidence-based practices by combining findings across studies whose constructs are similar enough to warrant comparison. Yet constructs come preloaded with social, historical, political, and cultural assumptions that anticipate how research problems…

Zimmerman, Kathleen N.; Ledford, Jennifer R.; Severini, Katherine E.; Pustejovsky, James E.; Barton, Erin E.; Lloyd, Blair P. – Grantee Submission, 2018
Tools for evaluating the quality and rigor of single case research designs (SCD) are often used when conducting SCD syntheses. Preferred components include evaluations of design features related to the internal validity of SCD to obtain quality and/or rigor ratings. Three tools for evaluating the quality and rigor of SCD (Council for Exceptional…

Chitiyo, Argnue; King, Seth A.; Krizon, Margaret D.; Ablakwa, Cephas N.; Markelz, Andrew M. – Behavioral Disorders, 2021
Students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) exhibit problem behaviors that potentially result in lower performance in reading and related content areas. Researchers and policy makers have increasingly emphasized the need for evidence-based practices (EBPs) in reading. However, conclusions made regarding the effectiveness of the…

Hott, Brittany L.; Berkeley, Sheri L.; Raymond, Lesli P.; Reid, Campbell C. – Journal of Special Education, 2018
Gains have been made over the last two decades in how to identify evidence-based practices for students with disabilities, but less progress has been made in ensuring that these interventions are used by classroom teachers. Although it is not the only area that needs to be addressed to bridge this research-to-practice gap, providing high-quality…

Barradell, Sarah; Peseta, Tai – Teaching in Higher Education, 2017
The idea of threshold concepts (TC) has been well received across the higher education community. However the concept's framework is still evolving and the literature uses the framework in different ways. Just over a decade since the idea first captured interest, it is opportune to explore the nature of that discourse, and the kinds of enquiry…

Ecker, Andrew J. – Insights into Learning Disabilities, 2016
The purpose of this study was to identify evidence-based practices (EBPs) for teachers of students with disabilities. A review of 13 trustworthy websites yielded 61 EBPs relevant, as determined by this author, to teachers of students with disabilities. The EBPs were organized into six categories: schoolwide framework, literacy instruction, math…

Kliemann, Karin – Journal of Special Education Apprenticeship, 2014
A synthesis of research on the TEACCH Model was conducted to determine which components of Structured Teaching under the TEACCH model meet criteria as evidenced based practices using the Reichow, Volkmar, and Cicchetti criteria (2007) along with reporting on the findings of the National Autism Center report (2009). The critical components of the…
