VanDerHeyden, Amanda M.; Broussard, Carmen; Burns, Matthew K. – Assessment for Effective Intervention, 2021
This study examined the classification accuracy for subskill mastery measures administered in mathematics for students in kindergarten and Grades 1, 3, 5, and 7 at fall (n = 564) and winter (n = 602) screening. In addition, response to classwide math intervention was examined as another layer of screening for students in kindergarten and Grades 1,…

Eklund, Katie; Burns, Matthew K.; Oyen, Kari; DeMarchena, Sarah; McCollom, Elizabeth M. – School Psychology Review, 2022
Research has demonstrated that regular school attendance is necessary for acceptable academic performance and the development of desirable social skills and behaviors. One in seven students in the United States struggles with chronic absenteeism, and 36 states use accountability metrics that are designed to assess attendance rates as part of…

Kwong, Elena; Burns, Matthew K. – School Psychology International, 2016
The current study examined the effectiveness of Incremental Rehearsal (IR) for teaching Chinese character recognition using a single-case experimental design. In addition, a morphological component was added to standard IR procedures (IRM) to take into account the role of morphological awareness in Chinese reading. Three kindergarten students in…

Burns, Matthew K.; Young, Helen; McCollom, Elizabeth M.; Stevens, Mallory A.; Izumi, Jared T. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2022
A skill-by-treatment interaction (STI) isolates skill deficits and manipulates conditions to match them to student needs. Based on the learning hierarchy, preintervention scores can help predict which intervention will be most successful for an individual student. This study compared the efficacy of a modeling and practice-based decoding…

Effect of Acquisition Rates on Off-Task Behavior of Kindergarten Students While Learning Sight Words
Burns, Matthew K.; Aguilar, Lisa N.; Warmbold-Brann, Kristy; Preast, June L.; Taylor, Crystal N. – Psychology in the Schools, 2021
Assessing a student's acquisition rates (ARs) is a reliable way to determine how many new words should be taught in one lesson without reducing retention. Exceeding a student's AR can result in frustration and problem behaviors. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of AR on the off-task behavior of kindergarten students while…

Burns, Matthew K.; Maki, Kathrin E.; Helman, Lori; McComas, Jennifer J.; Young, Helen – Reading & Writing Quarterly, 2018
Phonemic awareness (PA) includes rhyming, phoneme isolation, blending, and segmenting, but the relative importance of each component is unclear, especially for students from high-poverty areas. The current study examined the relationship between components of PA and an early literacy measure among 192 kindergarten students from high-poverty urban…

Taylor, Crystal N.; Aguilar, Lisa; Burns, Matthew K.; Preast, June L.; Warmbold-Brann, Kristy – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2018
Teaching children too many words during a lesson reduces retention. The amount of new information a student can successfully rehearse and recall later is called acquisition rate (AR), which has been reliably measured with students in first, third, and fifth grades. The purpose of this study was to examine the reliability of assessing AR for sight…

Sadeh, Shanna S.; Burns, Matthew K.; Sullivan, Amanda L. – School Psychology Quarterly, 2012
Evidence suggests that executive function (EF) may be a potent and malleable predictor of academic achievement in children. Schools may be able to use this predictive power if researchers develop EF measures that not only have ecological and construct validity, but also are also efficient and affordable. To this end, Garcia-Barrera and colleagues…

Volpe, Robert J.; Burns, Matthew K.; DuBois, Matthew; Zaslofsky, Anne Follen – Psychology in the Schools, 2011
The profound consequences of early reading failure necessitate the provision of early literacy interventions to struggling readers. Many schools struggle, however, to address early reading difficulties because of insufficient human resources. Accordingly, the present study investigated the effectiveness of incremental rehearsal (IR) as a Tier 3…

Burns, Matthew K.; Scholin, Sarah E.; Kosciolek, Stacey; Livingston, Judy – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2010
The current study examines the consistency of two response-to-intervention (RTI) decision-making models. Weekly progress monitoring data for 30 students participating in a Tier II intervention were collected for 30 weeks. The data were examined by comparing them to an aimline with a yearly goal and by computing a dual discrepancy (DD) using…
