Special Education Math Interventions

Abstract

The purpose of document is to provide readers with the coding protocol that authors \n used to code 22 mathematics intervention meta-analyses focused on participants with or \n at-risk of disabilities. The author drafted this coding protocol based on the meta-analysis \n quality indicators recommended by Talbott et al. (2018, pp. 248–249); specifically, the \n author considered the variables presented in Table 1 of Talbott et al. and supplemented \n the information so that the variables and definitions were specific to the purpose of this \n systematic review. We coded each meta-analysis for 53 variables across eight categories, \n including: Quality of Clear Research Questions, Quality of Eligibility Criteria, Quality \n of Search Procedures, Quality of Screening Criteria, Quality of Coding Procedures, Quality \n of Research Participants and Contexts, Quality of Data Analysis Plan, and Quality of Reporting \n Results. The mean interrater reliability across all codes using this protocol was 87.8% (range \n across categories = 74% –100%).
