Young, Francis A., Ed.; Lindsley, Donald B., Ed. – 1970
This book brings together papers presented at a conference on early experience and visual information processing in perceptual and reading disorders sponsored by the National Academy of Sciences. The goal of the conference was to integrate basic knowledge of structure and mechanisms of eye and brain with their function and their behavioral roles…

Gregg, Lee W.; Farnham-Diggory, Sylvia – 1976
A framework for a comprehensive theory of reading is presented in this paper. The framework consists of perceptual, semantic, and control systems. The perceptual and semantic spaces of the theory should not be confused with the terms "decoding" and "comprehension"; decoding and comprehension refer to ways in which those spaces…

Madeja, Stanley S., Ed. – 1978
The book contains papers and discussion summaries from a conference on the relationship of the arts to cognition and basic skills and the relevance of art and aesthetics research to art education. The papers suggest researchable questions in the arts and provide examples of ongoing studies in these areas. These questions are grouped into three…

Reber, Arthur S., Ed.; Scarborough, Don L., Ed. – 1977
This volume suggests not only that the reading process is more complex than previously assumed but that, like so many other cognitive and linguistic skills, the richness and depth of the complexity increase the more closely it is examined. Each chapter focuses upon various aspects of the reading process and provides for possible innovations and…

Fisher, Dennis F. – 1976
Some basic pattern-analyzing functions that occur during the reading process are described in this paper. The functions deal mainly with the analysis of typographical factors such as word shape, spacing, and orientation, but they also interact with contextual variables. The research interpreted in the paper proposes an attentional model of reading…

Silver, Edward A. – 1979
This study, presented at the 1979 meeting of the American Educational Research Association (AERA) in San Francisco, examines the relationship between a student's mathematical problem-solving ability and the nature of the student's recall of information from previously-solved problems. Seventy-seven seventh-grade students completed tasks measuring…
