Root, Jenny R.; Cox, Sarah K.; McConomy, M. Addie – Research and Practice for Persons with Severe Disabilities, 2022
A growing body of literature supports the effectiveness of Modified Schema-Based Instruction (MSBI) to improve mathematical problem-solving for students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability (ID). MSBI is an intervention package that teaches students to identify the problem structure and use a problem-solving heuristic to…

Faja, Susan; Clarkson, Tessa; Gilbert, Rachel; Vaidyanathan, Akshita; Greco, Gabriella; Rueda, M. Rosario; Combita, Lina M.; Driscoll, Kate – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
This randomized, controlled study examined the initial efficacy of an executive function training program for children with autism spectrum disorder. Seventy 7- to 11 year-olds with autism spectrum disorder and intelligence quotients [greater than or equal to]80 were randomly assigned to receive a web-based set of executive function training games…

Dang, Xixi; Yang, Chunliang; Che, Mengying; Chen, Yinghe; Yu, Xiao – European Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2022
Testing of previously studied information potentiates subsequent learning of new information, a phenomenon referred to as the "forward testing effect" (FTE). The current study aimed to investigate the developmental trajectory of the FTE and whether the reset-of-encoding process contributes to the FTE. Younger children, older children,…

Shijun, Chen – International Education Studies, 2022
The high-stakes College English Test (CET), developed, administered, and reformed over the last 20 years, has received great attention in the aspect of washback on teaching and learning from previous research. Very few studies explored its consequences in the workplace domain--being used as a screening lever. This research aimed to 1) compare…

Novikova, Irina A.; Gridunova, Marina V.; Novikov, Alexey L.; Shlyakhta, Dmitriy A. – Journal of Intelligence, 2022
The development of intercultural competence (ICC) is important for the modern personality in an unstable and diverse world, but there is a lack of research on this phenomenon in the context of age, gender and intellectual differences. The purpose of the present exploratory study is to identify relations between ICC, cognitive abilities and…

Erica Lozy – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Reading difficulties during childhood often continue during adulthood and result in adverse effects (e.g., unemployment, poverty). A common method to teach early literacy skills is via multisensory instructional programs, which use combinations of mnemonic devices, such as visual, auditory, tactile, and kinesthetic movements. The current…

Bambara, Linda M.; Cole, Christine L.; Telesford, Alana; Bauer, Kathleen; Bilgili-Karabacak, Irem; Weir, Amanda; Thomas, Amanda – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of a multicomponent peer-mediated intervention (PMI) on teaching adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) how to show interest in peer conversation partners by asking partner-focused questions about the person, their interests, or their experiences and by making partner-focused…

Hampton, Lauren H.; Kaiser, Ann P.; Nietfeld, Jennifer P.; Khachoyan, Ani – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
JASP-EMT, the combined Enhanced Milieu Teaching (EMT) and Joint Attention, Structured Play, and Emotion Regulation (JASPER) interventions, has been found to be effective for promoting social communication in young children with autism (Kasari et al. in J Am Acad Child Adolesc Psychiatry 53(6):635-646, 2014). The current study examined the effects…

Kälin, Sonja; Roebers, Claudia M. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2021
Temperamental effortful control (EC) and executive functions (EF) are two frameworks for studying self-regulation in children. Despite stemming from different research traditions, they show many conceptual and theoretical similarities and their corresponding tasks are often used interchangeably. However, little is known about how and whether the…

Hirsch, Megan E.; Lansford, Kaitlin L.; Barrett, Tyson S.; Borrie, Stephanie A. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Perceptual training is a listener-targeted means for improving intelligibility of dysarthric speech. Recent work has shown that training with one talker generalizes to a novel talker of the same sex and that the magnitude of benefit is maximized when the talkers are perceptually similar. The current study expands previous findings by…

Geller, Shay A.; Gal, Kobi; Segal, Avi; Sripathi, Kamali; Kim, Hyunsoo G.; Facciotti, Marc T.; Igo, Michele; Hoernle, Nicholas; Karger, David – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2021
This article provides computational and rule-based approaches for detecting confusion that is expressed in students' comments in couse forums. To obtain reliable, ground truth data about which posts exhibit student confusion, we designed a decision tree that facilitates the manual labeling of forum posts by experts. However, manual labeling is…

Hallman-Thrasher, Allyson; Strachota, Susanne; Thompson, Jennifer – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2021
Inherent in the Common Core's Standard for Mathematical Practice to "look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning" (SMP 8) is the idea that students engage in this practice by generalizing (NGA Center and CCSSO 2010). In mathematics, generalizing involves "lifting" and communicating about ideas at a level where the…

Dafoe, Allan – Sociological Methods & Research, 2018
Social scientists routinely address temporal dependence by adopting a simple technical fix. However, the correct identification strategy for a causal effect depends on causal assumptions. These need to be explicated and justified; almost no studies do so. This article addresses this shortcoming by offering a precise general statement of the…

Owen Van Horne, Amanda J.; Curran, Maura; Larson, Caroline; Fey, Marc E. – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2018
Purpose: In a previous article, we reported that beginning treatment for regular past tense "-ed" with certain types of verbs led to greater generalization in children with developmental language disorder than beginning treatment with other types of verbs. This article provides updated data from that study, including the addition of data…
