Project
Description: The Western Reserve Reading and Math Project (WRRMP) is a NIH funded longitudinal study on child development. The project has collected data annually for 15 years, with data on approximately 450 twin pairs collected during this time. The project has had several focal points throughout its history.
Project
Description: The purpose of this efficacy study is to assess whether equation-solving instruction, conducted within the context of word-problem tutoring, leads to improved word-problem solving outcomes. Word-problem proficiency is necessary to demonstrate successful mathematics performance.
Dataset
Part of Project: Western Reserve Reading and Math Project
Description: This dataset contains all longitudinal data for the entirety of the WRRMP. This includes 10 waves worth of twin data, with extensive reading, math, behavioral, and environmental measures. Due to the twin nature of the data, data is presented as both long and wide, with each twin represented twice within the dataset.
Dataset
Part of Project: Developing connections between word problems and mathematical equations to promote word-problem performance among students with mathematics difficulty
Description: The purpose of this study was to explore the paths by which word-problem intervention, with versus without embedded pre-algebraic reasoning instruction, improved word-problem performance. Students with mathematics difficulty (MD;n304) were randomly assigned to a business-as-usual condition or 1 of 2 variants of word-problem intervention.
