Reading Psychology, v13 n3 p201-15 Jul-Sep 1992

Investigates the reading orientation of teachers who instruct students with special needs by using the Theoretical Orientation in Reading Profile. Finds that teachers in the study were not strongly associated with any one theoretical orientation but tended to be eclectic. Finds also that the teachers clustered primarily into two orientations: whole language and skills/phonics. (PRA)
