Peer reviewedDavis, James N.; And Others – Journal of Reading Behavior, 1988
Examines the effects on comprehension of instructing native English speakers in the organization of a scientific journal article written in French. Finds a significant main effect for instruction in text structure when the text was in canonical experimental report order and no significant difference when the text order was scrambled. (RS)
