OverviewAI-generated summary
Tyler A. Hicks investigates educational practices and outcomes for students with disabilities, with a particular focus on those from racially and ethnically marginalized backgrounds. His research explores how inclusive general education classrooms impact self-determination for these students. Hicks also examines the quality of Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) in relation to special education placement and the college and career readiness support provided to youth with and without disabilities.
His work utilizes ecobehavioral analysis to understand student experiences in various classroom settings and employs statistical modeling, such as Bayesian multilevel models, to predict social contact frequencies. Hicks has also developed and evaluated interventions, like the Goal Setting Challenge App, to improve transition goal attainment for students with disabilities. He has published 54 papers, accumulating 408 citations, and holds an h-index of 12. He actively collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Daria Gerasimova and Sheida K. Raley.
