Sparrow, Sara S. – 1969
The purpose of this study was to determine how retarded readers differed from normal readers in the various ways laterality is manifested. An additional purpose was to investigate the development of laterality as seen across several age levels. Subjects were 80 white male 9-, 10-, 11-, and 12-year-olds from regular classrooms in suburban…

Bailey, David Sherman – 1970
Differentiation of the effects of cultural deprivation and achievement characteristics as they relate to auditory comprehension and by implication to potential reading ability was investigated. A total of 80 eighth-grade students were classified into four experimental groups: deprived-achievers, deprived-nonachievers, nondeprived-achievers, and…

Singer, Harry. – 1969
A review of research on factors involved in general reading ability and reading in the content areas is presented. In the primary grades, reading comprehension appears to be a specific factor dependent on instructional conditions. During the intermediate grades, common factors emerge and tend to integrate at a more central response level and…

These four studies in a series deal with good and poor readers' utilization of selected cues in paired-associate learning. Specific cues considered were color, order of presentation, and verbal mediators. Answers to two basic questions were sought: (1) Do the selected cues have a facilitative effect upon children's paired-associate learning? (2)…
