Cole, Peter G.; Mengler, Elise D. – Reading Psychology, 1994
Finds that children with learning disabilities performed significantly worse on only the first level of phonemic awareness compared to younger children of average reading ability at the same reading age level and significantly worse on compound phonemic awareness compared to a control group. Explicates implications for diagnosis and remediation of…

Schunk, Dale H.; Rice, Jo Mary – 1984
A study investigated the effects of verbalizing comprehension strategies on reading achievement, self-efficacy, and ability attributions of 26 children in grades four and five. The subjects, who had reading comprehension deficiencies, received instruction practice and opportunities. Within each grade, half of the subjects verbalized strategies…

Schwenker, Judyanne – 1979
A study was undertaken to examine the feasibility of a modified cloze format in the assessment of contextual and structural analysis skills and to examine certain factors of language processing among adult, nonproficient readers. The subjects, 69 adults enrolled in remedial reading courses at two technical colleges, were administered either the…

Tillman, Chester E.; And Others – 1973
Researchers investigating the cerebral information processing of visual stimuli have usually followed the pattern of stimulating the subject's eyes with light and observing accompanying changes in brain wave patterns. Such visually evoked responses (VERs) have been found to discriminate bright from dull children and dyslexic from normal readers.…

Performance of Reading Disabled Children at Different Levels of Language: A Model-Based Exploration.
Stahl, Steven A.; Erickson, Lawrence G. – 1984
A study compared the performance of 12 reading disabled and 15 normally achieving third grade students and 11 normally achieving first grade students on a variety of measures at different levels of language and reading in order to examine several macro models of reading disability--specifically, the general language, rule abstraction, and speed of…
