For those who don't want to read the full results, the key points are that the study examined the implementation of RtI in Grade 1–3 reading in 13 states during the 2011–12 school year, focusing on 146 schools that were experienced with RtI.
For those students just below the school-determined eligibility cut point in Grade 1, assignment to receive reading interventions did not improve reading outcomes; it produced negative impacts.... In Grades 2 and 3, there were no statistically significant impacts of interventions for struggling readers.

My question would be what program they used, not all programs work for all children as we know.

Mayleng, I suspect that with 146 schools in the study, many different programs were used, but as you point out, no single program works for all children. RTI is not the same as having an IEP. It's not surprising that "group intervention" isn't helpful compared to INDIVIDUALIZED education plans, but it is disturbing to hear that having RTI can yield WORSE progress than no intervention. I wonder if expectations are "lowered" and the pace is slower, such that the students aren't even exposed to what typical grade-mates are doing.
