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? Post hoc Tukey comparisons showed nonresponsive students scored significantly lower than always responsive students on Grammatical Closure, PPVT-R, pretreatment RLN, pretreatment RLS, pretreatment Segmentation, Sentence Imitation, and Word Discrimination, and significantly higher on the Achenbach. → Al Otaiba 2006

q3 · i? · causal · r2
Tukey HSD pairwise comparisons following the MANOVA of 104 children. Nonresponsive students scored lower than always responsive students on seven language and literacy measures (all p < .05 or stronger) and higher on the Achenbach problem behavior composite (p < .001).
"nonresponsive students had sig- nificantly lower scores than always re- sponsive students on Grammatical Closure ( p < .001), PPVT-R ( p < .001), pretreatment RLN ( p < .001), pretreat- ment RLS (p < .001), pretreatment Seg- mentation (p < .05), Sentence Imitation (p < .001), and Word Discrimination (p < .001). Nonresponsive students had significantly higher (i.e., more nega- tive) scores on the Achenbach ( p < .001)."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Nonresponsive, sometimes responsive, and always responsive students differ reliably on problem behavior, vocabulary, naming speed, sentence imitation, syntactic awareness, and segmentation
- Always responsive students showed large effect-size advantages over nonresponsive students, with the largest effect sizes ranging from 0.58 to 1.72
- Naming speed, vocabulary, sentence imitation, problem behavior, and amount of intervention correctly classify most nonresponsive and always responsive students
- Nonresponsive students were in classrooms with lower-quality Ladders implementation and lower fall first-grade PALS fidelity
- Nonresponsiveness to kindergarten intervention is persistent and predicts school-identified reading problems through third grade
- A meta-analysis attributes the strongest predictors of nonresponsiveness to rapid naming and problem behavior — related
