Overview

Randomized trial demonstrates improved addition fluency in children, suggesting effective interventions for fluency issues.

Key Points

  • To investigate the effects of calculation and reading fluency interventions on children with comorbid fluency problems.
  • Three intervention groups: calculation, reading, and control;
  • Assessment of single- and multi-digit addition and reading fluency;
  • Comparison of group performance after interventions.
  • Calculation group showed significant improvement in addition fluency compared to other groups;
  • No significant difference in reading fluency between reading and other groups;
  • No cross-domain effects observed.
