Modeling the early paths of phonological awareness and factors suopporting its development in children with and without familiar risk of dyslexia

2007

The development of phonological awareness (PA) before school age was modeled in association with the development of vocabulary and letter knowledge, home literacy environment (HLE), children's reading interest, and beginning reading skill in children with and without familial risk of dyslexia. A total of 186 children were followed from birth to the age of 6.5 years. Of these children, about half had a familial background of reading difficulties (the at-risk group), and the other half came from families without such background (the control group). The data from several measures and assessment time points were analyzed within an SEM framework, and a latent analysis of growth curves was employ…

Onko fyysisellä minäkuvalla yhteyttä psyykkisiin pulmiin?

2015

Tiivistelmä Tervo Pirkko. ONKO FYYSISELLÄ MINÄKUVALLA YHTEYTTÄ PSYYKKISIIN PULMIIN? Erityispedagogiikan pro gradu tutkielma. Jyväskylän yliopiston kasvatustieteiden laitos. Ohjaaja: Hannu Savolainen Kevät-2015 66 sivua Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoitus on selvittää, onko fyysisellä minäkuvalla yhteyttä psyykkisiin pulmiin ja onko tämä yhteys erilaista tytöillä ja pojilla. Fyysinen minäkuva jakautuu tässä tutkimuksessa kahteen osa-alueeseen, minäkuvaan koskien fyysistä ulkonäköä ja fyysisiä kykyjä. Psyykkisien pulmien indikaattorina käytettiin sekä opettajien että oppilaiden arviota. Tutkimuksessani on valmis aineisto (ISKE-verkosto) ja tämän tutkimuksen taustateoriana on Marshin minäkäsitysteoria…

Psychiatric Problems in Adolescence Mediate the Association Between Childhood Learning Disabilities and Later Well-Being

2021

This follow-up study investigated the associations of childhood learning disabilities (LDs) with adult-age anxiety, depression, and unemployment. Psychosocial problems in childhood and psychiatric diagnoses and lack of education in adolescence were studied as potential mediators, and gender and mother’s education as potential moderators of these associations. Data on childhood clinical neuropsychological assessments and lifelong register data on individuals with childhood LD (n = 430; 301 [70%] males; 20–39 years of age) and matched controls (n = 2,149) were applied. Mediation analyses were performed using structural equation modeling. Childhood LDs exerted a significant, but relatively sma…

Mathematics Skills of Kosovar Primary School Children: A Special View on Children with Mathematical Learning Difficulties

2018

The present study examined the development of mathematics skills of Kosovar primary school children in terms of their gender, living area, socio-economic status, and achievement level. A special emphasis was placed on longitudinal investigations of the development of mathemat-ics skills in children with learning difficulties in mathematics over a 2-year and 4-month period. Participants were 553 fourth-graders, 85 of whom identified with mathematical learning difficulties were classified into two subgroups: children with low mathematics achievement and children with limited mathematics ability. Results have shown that there were no gender differences in mathematics achievement. Children’s li…

Teachers’ Ability to Identify Children at Early Risk for Reading Difficulties in Grade 1

2017

The aim of the study was to investigate what kinds of assessment practices classroom teachers and special educational needs (SEN) teachers use in assessing first grade students' pre-reading skills (letter knowledge and phonological skills). Further, we investigated to what extent teachers were able to identify difficulties in pre-reading skills of the children with the lowest achievement scores. The accuracy of teacher ratings of students' pre-reading skills was studied by comparing teacher ratings to actual test scores. The data from two Finnish longitudinal studies were used: JLD sample (class teachers, n = 91; SEN teachers, n = 51; 200 students) and First Steps sample (class teachers, n …

Comorbid Fluency Difficulties in Reading and Math: Longitudinal Stability Across Early Grades

2018

We examined the prevalence of comorbidity of dysfluent reading and math skills longitudinally in a representative sample ( N = 1,928) and the stability of comorbid and single difficulties from first to fourth grades. The findings indicated that half the children who showed very low performance in one skill also evidenced low or very low performance in the other. Comorbid difficulties had somewhat higher prevalence in third and fourth graders than in first and second graders. The stability of comorbid difficulties was found to be established from Grade 2 onward, but the stability of single difficulties increased steadily across grades. Overall, the findings emphasize the relatively strong s…

Jyväskylän yliopisto. Erityispedagogiikan laitos ja opettajankoulutuslaitos. 58 sivua. Tässä määrällisessä tutkimuksessa selvitettiin 2. ̶ 5. -luokkalaisten minäpystyvyyden ja intervention yhteyttä oppilaan käyttämiin yhteenlaskustrategioihin. Tutkimuksessa tarkasteltiin oppilaan minäpystyvyyden lähtötason yhteyttä yhteenlaskustrategioiden käyttöön sekä oppilaan nopeiden yhteenlaskustrategioiden käyttöä aikarajoitetussa ja -rajattomassa tilanteessa. Tutkimuksessa tarkasteltiin myös onko oppilaan nopeiden y…
