1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Early numeracy skills are vital for kindergarten students because they provide the foundation for acquiring mathematics skills in both kindergarten and subsequent years. Teacher support to intervene with kindergarteners at risk for poor mathematics learning outcomes is a promising approach to addressing this achievement gap. The current study replicates previous work on an established early numeracy intervention, ROOTS. In this instance, ROOTS uses remote professional development as a novel format for interventionist training support during the COVID-19 pandemic. Findings indicate that interventionists receiving remote support for implementing ROOTS found training and coaching acceptable and feasible. Remote training and coaching supported strong levels of implementation fidelity. Furthermore, children who received the ROOTS intervention outperformed their control group peers on post-test measures of mathematics achievement within a randomized controlled trial research design. Outcomes and implications for using remote professional development as a format for supporting educators in their use of early numeracy intervention programs are discussed within a pandemic-response context.
