q1 · i? · associational · r?

This is the authors' interpretive claim in the abstract, noting they "add to the limited research base of evidence" and referencing the What Works Clearinghouse (Gersten et al., 2008). It is an author interpretation, not a tested result.

"We add to the limited research base of evidence that the IRLA tool may be an important instrument for bridging the gap between screening and providing intensive, systematic instruction as detailed by the What Works Clearinghouse (Gersten et al., 2008)."
