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? No significant interaction effects were determined for age, gender, SES, or ethnic/linguistic background, and effects were not dependent on nonverbal intelligence, vocabulary, or decoding skills. → Droop 2016
Evidence¶
Droop 2016¶
Droop, M.; van Elsäcker, W.; Voeten, M. J. M.; Verhoeven, L. (2016). Long-Term Effects of Strategic Reading Instruction in the Intermediate Elementary Grades. Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness. https://doi.org/10.1080/19345747.2015.1065528
q3 · i? · causal · r2
Interaction analyses added to the multilevel models of the randomized trial tested whether intervention effects varied by student characteristics; the article reports no significant interactions for any background or ability variable.
"No signi ficant interaction effects were determined for age, gender, SES, or ethnic/linguistic background. The intervention effects were also not dependent on the level of the student’s nonverbal intelligence, vocabulary, or decoding skills."
Discussion¶
Learner Variables¶
- Prior Knowledge — moderator: an instructional effect differs with it
- Reading and Language — moderator: an instructional effect differs with it
