... This appendix details how the authors gathered the necessary data under six parameters to create summary tables that were utilized by the committee in the body of the report. A full copy of the final paper, which includes the Codebook that the authors created to develop the summary tables, is available at https://nap.

... • What Methods and Measurement types have been studied under funded grants? To answer these questions, Klager and Tipton reviewed publicly available data on IES-funded grants, which included information on each of these areas via the inclusion of study abstracts (IES, 2021)

... , Training, Methods, and various special programs including large "center" grants that engage in activities that cover multiple goals. The publicly available data on IES's website about funded grants includes a field called "GoalText," but not the actual Goal (i.e., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.)
From page 228...
... The "Other" category includes special grant competitions, unsolicited grants, centers established for the study of particular topics, and other projects that cover multiple goals. All grants with GoalText that cover more than one goal (e.g., Efficacy and Development)

... program that maps onto the STEM topic used in this analysis. In other cases, the program name is not very descriptive, as in the case of Research Grants Focused on Systematic Replication.

... These types of institutions include education service providers, scientific organizations, state departments of education, and school districts. All institutions were coded into an institution type based on the description of the institution on its own website, if available, or other internet sources.
From page 232...
... Relevant subtypes that were coded include value-added models, multilevel models, missing data, power analysis, effect size computation/interpretation, regression discontinuity, interrupted time series, single-case design, heterogeneity, external validity, and local treatment effects. If the abstract indicated the grant dealt with any of the subtypes, the subtype code was applied.
From page 233...
... As with teachers, interventions were coded as other if they were designed to affect one of the aforementioned actors and did not otherwise affect students, except through the changes induced in the targeted individual or institution. Coding for parents and administrators as the primary target of the intervention worked in much the same way as teachers; the intervention needed to focus on changing beliefs, skills, or behavior or providing tools for the parents or administrators rather than simply having the parents or administrators deliver the intervention.
