  • Validation of the Pennsylvania Kindergarten Entry Inventory

    Katherine M Barghaus, Katie Dahlke et al.ARTICLEEarly Education and Development2023

    Research Findings: Kindergarten is the gateway to education and a point of great variability in children’s knowledge and skills. As a result, there is keen interest in kindergarten entry assessments (KEAs) to understand and address gaps in early skills. This study rigorously investigated the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’s Kindergarten Entry Inventory (PA KEI). Multilevel factor analyses provided evidence for three factors–Emerging Academic Compet…

  • Classroom Engagement Scale

    Katherine M Barghaus, Cassandra Henderson et al.ARTICLEEarly Education and Development2023

    Research Findings: This study provides psychometric validation of the Classroom Engagement Scale (CES), a 14-item, teacher-report, formative assessment of behavioral engagement. It is currently used for all kindergarten children in a large, urban school district where it is embedded in the report card. Multi-level factor analysis revealed two distinct dimensions of the measure – academic engagement and social engagement – that comport with the ed…

  • Effects of intradistrict school mobility and high student turnover rates on early reading achievement

    Whitney A LeBoeuf, Whitney LeBoeuf et al.ARTICLEApplied Developmental Science2018

    The primary aim of this study was to assess the relations between concurrent, cumulative, and contextual intradistrict school mobility and early reading achievement. Longitudinal administrative school records were used for an entire cohort of students in a large urban district from first through third grade. Findings indicated that students with a concurrent intradistrict school move had lower reading achievement scores at the end of each grade c…

  • Maximizing the Use of Integrated Data Systems

    Open AccessDennis P Culhane, Dennis Culhane et al.ARTICLEThe Annals of the American…2018Citada por: 5Referencias: 7

    State and local governments are seeking to use their health, education, and human services administrative data to address major social problems. As they attempt to move forward to develop and use integrated data systems (IDS), they have encountered substantial challenges. The Actionable Intelligence for Social Policy (AISP) team at the University of Pennsylvania targeted four common sets of challenges to IDS use: IDS governance, legal agreements,…

  • An Investigation of the Relations Between School Concentrations of Student Risk Factors and Student Educational Well-Being

    Open AccessJohn W Fantuzzo, Whitney A LeBoeuf et al.ARTICLEEducational Researcher2014Citada por: 5Referencias: 33

    This study investigated the unique relations between school concentrations of student risk factors and measures of reading, mathematics, and attendance. It used an integrated administrative data system to create a combined data set of risks (i.e., birth risks, teen mother, low maternal education, homelessness, maltreatment, and lead exposure) for an entire cohort of third-grade students in a large urban school district. At the school level, high …

  • Longitudinal Stability of IRT and Equivalent-Groups Linear and Equipercentile Equating

    Open AccessXiuyuan Zhang, Paul A Mcdermott et al.ARTICLEPsychological Reports2013

    A multiscale criterion-referenced test that featured two presumably equivalent forms (A and B), was administered to 1,667 Head Start children at each of four points over an academic year. Using a randomly equivalent groups design, three equating methods were applied: common-item IRT equating using concurrent calibration, linear transformation, and equipercentile transformation. The methods were compared by examining mean score differences, weight…

  • Predicting Risk of Placement

    Open AccessStaci Perlman, John W FantuzzoARTICLEJournal of the Society for Social…2013Citada por: 8Referencias: 2

    Guided by a developmental epidemiology framework, this study examines the extent to which first experiences of child maltreatment and use of emergency housing are predictive of out-of-home placement in early childhood. The study sample is a population of 12,045 second-grade students in a large, urban school district. Information on birth, maternal, and social risk factors was obtained and linked through an integrated data system. Life table analy…

  • The Unique and Combined Effects of Homelessness and School Mobility on the Educational Outcomes of Young Children

    Open AccessJohn W Fantuzzo, Whitney A LeBoeuf et al.ARTICLEEducational Researcher2012Citada por: 37Referencias: 25

    This study examined the unique and combined associations of homelessness and school mobility with educational well-being indicators, as well as the mediating effect of absenteeism, for an entire cohort of third-grade students in Philadelphia. Using integrated archival administrative data from the public school district and the municipal Office of Supportive Housing, multilevel linear models were estimated to test these associations while adjustin…

  • Multidimensionality of Teachers’ Graded Responses for Preschoolers’ Stylistic Learning Behavior

    Open AccessPaul A Mcdermott, John W Fantuzzo et al.ARTICLEEducational and Psychological…2011

    Assessment of preschool learning behavior has become very popular as a mechanism to inform cognitive development and promote successful interventions. The most widely used measures offer sound predictions but distinguish only a few types of stylistic learning and lack sensitive growth detection. The Learning-to-Learn Scales was designed to mitigate these shortcomings. Exploratory factoring of teachers’ ordered categorical ratings of 1,000 Head St…

    This article reports on the development and field trial of an integrated Head Start curriculum (Evidence-Based Program for Integrated Curricula [EPIC]) that focuses on comprehensive mathematics, language, and literacy skills. Seventy Head Start classrooms ( N = 1,415 children) were randomly assigned to one of two curriculum programs: EPIC or the Developmental Learning Materials Early Childhood Express, with curricula implemented as stand-alone pr…

  • Measurement and Population Miss-Fits

    Whitney A LeBoeuf, Whitney LeBoeuf et al.ARTICLEApplied Developmental Science2010

    This study explored the importance of using relevant measures when evaluating the effectiveness of early childhood interventions. Data from the federally-funded evaluation of the Comprehensive Child Development Program were used to examine whether the behavior measure, the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), was an appropriate tool for the diverse community-based sample of young, low-income children. Results demonstrated no confirmation of the CBCL …

  • A Multivariate Investigation of Maternal Risks and Their Relationship to Low-Income, Preschool Children's Competencies

    Marlo A Perry, John W FantuzzoARTICLEApplied Developmental Science2010

    Utilizing a developmental-ecological framework, the purpose of this study was to understand the unique impact of multiple maternal risks across time on ethnically diverse, low-income, preschool children's cognitive skills, pro-social behaviors, and behavior problems. Additionally, this study sought to understand the variability of maternal risks within a low-income population. Data from the national impact evaluation of the Comprehensive Child De…

  • A Variable- and Person-Oriented Investigation of Preschool Competencies and Head Start Children's Transition to Kindergarten and First Grade

    Christine M Mcwayne, Linnie E Green et al.ARTICLEApplied Developmental Science2009

    The present longitudinal study employed two distinctive approaches (variable-oriented and person-oriented) to examine low-income children's academic and social functioning across the important transition from pre-k to first grade. Participants included 152 former urban Head Start children. Variable-oriented and person-oriented approaches were hypothesized to contribute complementary information for purposes of whole-child assessment. Analyses rev…
