Note: “NS” = no significant impact of contrast on child skill, p>=.05; “+” = beneficial impact of experimental contrast on child skills with p<.05; '-' indicates detrimental impact with p<.05. Child outcomes are ordered as follows in the “Project-reported impacts” columns; “Literacy” outcomes include the PPVT, WJ Letter-Word and WJ Spelling; 'Math' outcomes include WJ Applied problems and CMAA; “Socioemotional” outcomes include social skills and problem behaviors; Fidelity of implementation was rated on a 4-point scale (0 = Not at all; 3 = High).
