Four components of reading speed were identified, and a measure of the first component, reading speed of known vocabulary, was investigated on a mixed sample of 84 boys (6 to 14 years old), which included a high proportion of retarded readers. (Author/GW)

Peer reviewedCurtis, Mary E.; Glaser, Robert – Journal of Educational Measurement, 1983
The implications that cognitive approaches to the study of reading can have for the assessment of reading achievement are discussed. Research in word decoding, semantic access, sentence processing, and discourse analysis is summarized with emphasis on processing efficiency required in one area affecting performance in another area. (Author/CM)

Peer reviewedMasson, Michael E. J.; Miller, Jo Ann – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1983
This study replicated Daneman and Carpenter's finding that the reading span test, as a measure of working memory storage and process functions, is predictive of performance on standard reading comprehension tests. It showed that reading span is related to the ability to draw inferences from, integrate, and encode text information. (Author/PN)

Peer reviewedMosenthal, Peter; Na, Tong Jin – Reading Research Quarterly, 1980
Reports that in a low-risk reading lesson activity, individual differences among students appeared as a function of the type of verbal interaction pattern or "register" with their teacher, while in a high-risk standardized test condition, individual differences appeared as a function of reading ability. (Author/MKM)
Descriptors: Elementary Education, Individual Differences, Psycholinguistics, Reading Achievement
Spearritt, Donald – Australian Journal of Reading, 1980
Reports research results suggesting that teachers need to assess several facets of reading comprehension, such as vocabulary, comprehension of passages, and speed of reading, in order to obtain an adequate picture of students' reading skills. (AEA)
