Project
Description: This meta-analysis aims at examining whether statistically significant differences in EF exist between bilingual and monolingual individuals, as well as estimating the potential moderators of such differences.
Project
Description: Information for the broader "Embedding Working Memory Training within Math Problem Solving" project is described below.
Project
Description: Project KIDS aimed to rigorously combine data from several independent RCTs to explore individual differences in response to intervention, focused on cognitive, behavioral, contextual, and family history correlates of intervention response.
Project
Description: The Meadows Center for Preventing Educational Risk (MCPER) partnered with the University of Houston, The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, Texas A&M University, and Florida State University to improve the reading comprehension of students in grades 7 through 12.
Project
Description: This meta-analysis examined effects of intervention on the level and trend of text-writing sequences of students with disabilities and writing difficulties, in addition to potential moderating effects related to student demographics (i.e., disability status, age, gender, and race) and writing task (i.e., sentence, essay, and narrative).
Dataset
Part of Project: Promoting Adolescents’ Comprehension of Text (PACT)
Description: In the 2013-14 school year, two PACT social studies RCTs were conducted, both with Grade 8 students. One study focused on schools with a higher percentage of English learners. The second study focused on struggling readers and provided a more intensified version of the PACT program.
Dataset
Part of Project: Promoting Adolescents’ Comprehension of Text (PACT)
Description: Students were in Grades 11 enrolled in general education social studies or in Grades 7-12 and enrolled in general education English/language arts classes. Data were collected using measures of reading and other academic skills, attitudes, and student characteristics. All students participated for one school year only.

Dataset
Part of Project: Profiles of Working Memory and Word Learning for Educational Research (POWWER)
Description: This dataset incudes data from 248 second graders (7- to 8-year-olds) with typical development from three states. One hundred sixty-seven were monolingual English-speaking and 81 were dual Spanish- and English-speaking.
Dataset
Part of Project: Promoting Adolescents’ Comprehension of Text (PACT)
Description: The Vocabulary and Comprehension (VoCo) project was a small study involving 44 struggling readers in Grade 9. The treatment was a multicomponent reading intervention delivered over 80 sessions during one school year. Data on measures of reading comprehension and fluency were collected at pre-test and post-test.
Dataset
Part of Project: Preschool Social and Emotional Development Study
Description: These data are children ages 2 through 5, includes preschool, child, and family demographic characters, social and emotional skills, cognitive skills, early math, early reading, and other indicators of kindergarten readiness (e.g., approaches to learning). Data were collected via director child assessments and teacher report.
Dataset
Part of Project: Math Achievement, Attitudes, and Anxiety
Description: Mathematics achievement, attitudes, and anxiety were longitudinally assessed for 342 (169 boys) adolescents from 7th to 9th grade, inclusive, and Latent Growth Curve Models were used to assess the relations among these traits and developmental change in them.
Dataset
Part of Project: Sex Differences in Mathematics Anxiety and Attitudes
Description: Sex differences in the strength of the relations between mathematics anxiety, mathematics attitudes, and mathematics achievement were assessed concurrently in sixth grade (n = 1,091, 545 boys) and longitudinally from sixth to seventh grade (n = 190, 97 boys).
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.
Dataset
Part of Project: Project KIDS
Description: These data are for each item on all achievement and behavioral assessments completed during the original intervention projects. The dataset is wide, with separate variable names for each wave of assessment. All participants (n= 4,038) are included. These data can be linked to the "total level" data using the PK_ID variable.
