Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? A MANCOVA on the six-month follow-up reading achievement measures detected no significant multivariate findings for instructional group. → Greenberg Daphne 2011
Evidence¶
Greenberg Daphne 2011¶
Greenberg Daphne, Wise Justin, Morris Robin, Fredrick Laura, Nanda Alice O., Pae Hye-K. (2011). A randomized control study of instructional approaches for struggling adult readers. Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3237050/
q3 · i? · causal · r2
Follow-up scores were available for 118 of the 198 participants (mean attendance 94.4 hours, mean age 37.97). The MANCOVA used the same pre-test covariates as the posttest analyses; no significant multivariate findings were detected.
"The measures administered at the follow up time point allowed for one MANCOVA: a MANCOVA related to reading achievement (WJ Letter Word ID, Word Attack, Reading Fluency, Passage Comprehension, GORT Fluency, and Comprehension). The same pre-test covariates used for the posttest analyses were used for the follow-up analyses. No significant multivariate findings were detected for follow-up scores."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Struggling adult readers made significant reading gains across all instructional groups, but all improvements were associated with small effect sizes — related
- Only one between-group difference emerged: the Control/Comparison, Decoding and Fluency, and DCEF groups showed stronger word attack outcomes than the Extensive Reading group — reports the opposite
- Four remedial reading interventions combined improved phonemic decoding, word reading accuracy and fluency, and reading comprehension for third-grade struggling readers one year after the interventions ended, though not on all measures — related
- Post-baseline practice condition has a significant multivariate effect on combined posttest performance and observed practice effort after adaptive AI-assisted pretesting — related
- Re-measurement of final test scores after four months of remedial work indicated that classroom use of the Texas reading diagnosis procedures would prove profitable — related
