In this report AIR proposes an SES index for NAEP comprised of four existing NAEP variables. The results show that the NAEP SES index performs better than the current proxy—NSLP eligibility—in explaining performance variation and racial/ethnic achievement gaps in NAEP, as well as performing better than similar SES indices in ...
Researchers from AIR will work with traumatic brain injury stakeholders to co-create a TBI&Work Toolkit with resources that are comprehensive, user-friendly, evidence-based, strength-based, and easy to use for TBI self-management in the workplace.
Knowledge of comparative analysis of intraclass correlations (ICCs) forms an important tool to properly design impact evaluations of development interventions, especially cluster randomized control trials, by ensuring that an evaluation has sufficient statistical power. This paper takes an important step towards helping researchers to accurately estimate appropriate sample sizes for ...
Between 2012 and 2019, the response rate for the screener phase of the National Household Education Surveys Program declined. To find out why, AIR conducted a groundbreaking study and provided the National Center for Education Statistics with actionable information to combat this growing problem for the next survey administration in ...
AIR has played a critical role in investigating the use of evidence-based practices in home visiting, early language outcomes, home visiting during the COVID-19 pandemic, and evaluations of the Welcome Baby program sponsored by First 5 LA.
Toward the goal of more rapid knowledge accumulation via better meta-analyses, this article explores statistical approaches intended to increase the precision and comparability of effect sizes from education research.
Findings from this brief suggest that steps by Medicare to relax prescribing requirements during the pandemic, such as allowing early refills and larger quantities of medication, likely helped maintain medication adherence for high blood pressure and prevent racial and ethnic disparities in adherence from worsening. ...
The Considerations are a pioneering effort by AIR researchers to operationalize diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) values within each phase of the research synthesis process.
