Steacy, Laura M.; Petscher, Yaacov; Elliott, James D.; Smith, Kathryn; Rigobon, Valeria M.; Abes, Daniel R.; Edwards, Ashley A.; Himelhoch, Alexandra C.; Rueckl, Jay G.; Compton, Donald L. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2021
We modeled word reading growth in typically developing (n = 118) and children with dyslexia (n = 20), Grades 2-5, across multiple exposures to 30 words. We explored the facilitative versus inhibitory effects of exposures to differential mixes of words that support high- versus low-frequency vowel pronunciations. One training corpus contained a…

Martin, BrittanyLee N.; Fuchs, Lynn S. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2019
The purpose of this study was to explore interactions between limited English proficiency (LEP) status, as a function of risk status (low math performance at the start of the school year), on computation and word-problem-solving performance. Among 260 first-grade students, classified as at-risk (AR) or not-at-risk (NAR) for math disability, we…
