Luke Keele; Matthew Lenard; Lindsay Page – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2024
In education settings, treatments are often non-randomly assigned to clusters, such as schools or classrooms, while outcomes are measured for students. This research design is called the clustered observational study (COS). We examine the consequences of common support violations in the COS context. Common support violations occur when the…

Robinson, Daniel H.; Wainer, Howard – Educational Psychology Review, 2023
To date, there have been four responses (Dumas & Edelsbrunner, "Educational Psychology Review," 35, 48, 2023; Grosz, "Educational Psychology Review," 35, 57, 2023; Mayer, "Educational Psychology Review," 35, 64, 2023; Zitzmann et al., "Educational Psychology Review," 35, 65, 2023) to the Brady et al.…

Lindsay C. Page; Matthew A. Lenard; Luke Keele – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2020
Clustered observational studies (COSs) are a critical analytic tool for educational effectiveness research. We present a design framework for the development and critique of COSs. The framework is built on the counterfactual model for causal inference and promotes the concept of designing COSs that emulate the targeted randomized trial that would…

Dart, Evan H.; Radley, Keith C.; Briesch, Amy M.; Furlow, Christopher M.; Cavell, Hannah J.; Briesch, Amy M. – Behavioral Disorders, 2016
Two studies investigated the accuracy of eight different interval-based group observation methods that are commonly used to assess the effects of classwide interventions. In Study 1, a Microsoft Visual Basic program was created to simulate a large set of observational data. Binary data were randomly generated at the student level to represent…

Correia, Edgar A.; Sartóris, Vítor; Fernandes, Tiago; Cooper, Mick; Berdondini, Lucia; Sousa, Daniel; Pires, Branca Sá; da Fonseca, João – British Journal of Guidance & Counselling, 2018
Within the major therapeutic paradigms, observational instruments have been developed to assess orientation-specific interventions or processes. However, to date, no such instrument exists to assess existential practices. Recent research indicates the key practices of existential therapists, and forms an empirical basis on which to develop an…

DiPerna, James Clyde; Lei, Puiwa; Bellinger, Jillian; Cheng, Weiyi – School Psychology Quarterly, 2015
A multisite cluster randomized trial was conducted to examine the effects of the Social Skills Improvement System Classwide Intervention Program (SSIS-CIP; Elliott & Gresham, 2007) on students' classroom social behavior. The final sample included 432 students across 38 second grade classrooms. Social skills and problem behaviors were measured…

McCoy, Kimberly; Oliver, Justin J.; Borden, D. Scott; Cohn, Scott I. – International Journal of Sustainability in Higher Education, 2018
Purpose: This paper aims to test a nudge, or intervention, designed through behavioral insights at a university campus to discover cost-effective means for increasing recycling participation and methods for estimating waste removal cost savings. Design/methodology/approach: A series of studies were conducted demonstrating the effectiveness of…

Smith, Rhonda L.; Eklund, Katie; Kilgus, Stephen P. – School Psychology Quarterly, 2018
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the concurrent validity, sensitivity to change, and teacher acceptability of Direct Behavior Rating single-item scales (DBR-SIS), a brief progress monitoring measure designed to assess student behavioral change in response to intervention. Twenty-four elementary teacher-student dyads implemented a daily…

Goh, Tan Leng – Quest, 2017
Sitting for extended periods of time is detrimental to children's physical health and may cause off-task behavior in the classroom. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of a classroom physical activity (PA) program, TAKE 10!®, on children's PA and on-task behavior. Participants in the program included 137 children from six classes…

Phillips, Krishtine; Downer, Jason – Early Education and Development, 2017
Research Findings: This study investigated the relationship between features of the classroom environment and misalignment between teacher and observer ratings of preschoolers' classroom engagement and the extent to which years of teaching experience moderated this relationship. In a sample of 116 preschoolers and 21 teachers in 29 classrooms,…

Kahan, David; Nicaise, Virginie; Reuben, Karen – Physical Educator, 2016
Teacher prompting is a means to increase preschool children's physical activity. Twelve 4- and 5-year-olds at one preschool in the southwest U.S. participated in an ABA prompting intervention that utilized a bug-in-the-ear device to signal teachers to prompt sedentary children to increase physical activity level during unstructured recess.…

Huang, Simin; Xu, Peng; Feng, Lie; Lu, Chunting; Yang, Jing – International Journal of Higher Education, 2018
History taking is an extremely important skill for medical students to master. In China, medical students usually have opportunities to practise this skill on real patients after they have learned diagnostics and basic relevant theoretical knowledge. Today, however, several factors, such as increased enrolment of medical students and the need to…

Reinholz, Daniel – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2017
This paper describes an intervention for improving the quality of peer assessment conferences in calculus. Although a body of work highlights the learning benefits of peer assessment, few papers have described the nature of student conversations during peer conferences/assessment in detail. This paper provides deeper insight into what those…

Saunders, Ruth P.; Pfeiffer, Karin; Brown, William H.; Howie, Erin K.; Dowda, Marsha; O'Neill, Jennifer R.; McIver, Kerry; Pate, Russell R. – Health Education & Behavior, 2017
This study investigated the utility of the Study of Health and Activity in Preschool Environments (SHAPES) conceptual model, which targeted physical activity (PA) behavior in preschool children, by examining the relationship between implementation monitoring data and child PA during the school day. We monitored implementation completeness and…
