Rupley, William H. – 1975
This paper argues that the first step in research aimed at identifying what constitutes the effective reading teacher should be the establishment of criteria which deals with effectiveness. A conceptual model is presented which could be used to identify the effective teacher. The focal point of the model is that effective reading instruction…

Peer reviewedRupley, William H.; Wise, Beth S. – Journal of Reading Education, 1984
Notes that major changes have occurred in the factors investigated and the data collection procedures employed in teacher effectiveness research and that the generalizability of significant findings continues to be limited by methodological and experimental design problems. (FL)

Peer reviewedRupley, William H.; And Others – Reading World, 1979
Describes a study of the visual discrimination abilities of children who varied in their ability to recognize words. Indicates that visual discrimination skills of the type needed to discriminate between single artificial graphemes do not seem essential for the word recognition aspect of reading. (TJ)

Content, Domain, and Word Knowledge: Relationship to Comprehension of Narrative and Expository Text.
Peer reviewedRupley, William H.; Willson, Victor L. – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 1996
Examines background knowledge and strategy knowledge from a broad view to better understand how they contribute to elementary-age students' reading comprehension of both narrative and expository texts. Indicates that background knowledge specific to the content of the text being read begins to diminish in importance at about grade 4, when strategy…

Peer reviewedWillson, Victor L.; Rupley, William H. – Reading Research and Instruction, 1993
Examines the roles of orthographic, meaning, and phonological processors in children's word recognition. Finds that graphemic complexity accounted for the highest amount of variance at each level, with other variables shifting across age in a pattern consistent with a stage development model of word recognition.
