Hajovsky, Daniel B.; Maki, Kathrin E.; Chesnut, Steven R.; Barrett, Courtenay A.; Burns, Matthew K. – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2022
This study examined the extent to which cognitive ability index scores predicted multidisciplinary teams' (MDT) SLD identification within a response-to-intervention (RtI) method after accounting for RtI slope and norm-referenced achievement scores. Results showed that four achievement composite scores (i.e., basic reading, reading comprehension,…

Mason, Erica N.; Benz, Sarah A.; Lembke, Erica S.; Burns, Matthew K.; Powell, Sarah R. – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2019
This article is about a school-district-initiated partnership with university faculty and their effort to implement a mathematics multi-tiered system of support (MTSS). In addition to reporting research about MTSS implementation, we describe how this district translated research into practice. We also share the perceptions of key stakeholders…

Codding, Robin S.; Burns, Matthew K.; Lukito, Gracia – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2011
Mathematics fluency is a critical component of mathematics learning yet few attempts have been made to synthesize this research base. Seventeen single-case design studies with 55 participants were reviewed using meta-analytic procedures. A component analysis of practice elements was conducted and treatment intensity and feasibility were examined.…

Burns, Matthew K.; Walick, Christopher; Simonson, Gregory R.; Dominguez, Lauren; Harelstad, Laura; Kincaid, Aleksis; Nelson, Gena S. – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2015
The study examined the use of a conceptual and procedural framework for identifying math deficits and delivering appropriate interventions. Participants were two first-grade students and one third-grade student, who were identified as struggling with the grade-appropriate content in math. The first-grade students focused on addition and the…

Parker, David C.; Burns, Matthew K.; McMaster, Kristen L.; Shapiro, Edward S. – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2012
Early writing interventions can help students develop the writing skills they need to experience positive educational and postsecondary outcomes, but effective intervention requires instructionally relevant assessment data. Shapiro's curriculum-based assessment (CBA) model integrates related yet distinct CBA approaches into a model that informs…

Burns, Matthew K.; Egan, Andrea M.; Kunkel, Amy K.; McComas, Jennifer; Peterson, Meredith M.; Rahn, Naomi L.; Wilson, Jennifer – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2013
Response to Intervention (RtI) is being implemented as a new initiative in PK-12 schools with increasing frequency. However, the model must be sustained at the school level, which is potentially difficult due to a number of challenges brought about by systems change. This article applied the Stokes and Baer (1977) framework for programming for…
