Olson, Richard K.; Wise, Barbara; Ring, Jerry; Johnson, Mina – Scientific Studies of Reading, 1997
Reports results from one- and two-year follow-up tests for children with reading problems who had previously received 25 hours of training in one of two computer-based remediation programs. Finds children initially trained in phonological skills made greater gains in phonological awareness, phonological decoding, and untimed word recognition at…
