The present simulation study examined the statistical properties (namely, Type I error and statistical power) of various novel randomized single-case multiple-baseline designs and associated randomized-test analyses for comparing the A- to B-phase immediate abrupt outcome changes in two independent intervention conditions. It was found that with…

The present paper examines if developmental pathways for students at risk for academic failure can be improved through social and emotional learning (SEL). Specifically, we test this hypothesis by accounting for shifts in student engagement, a highly studied and malleable construct often inclusive of SEL interventions, as the pathway by which to…
