Peer reviewedWoerz, Marc; Maples, Willis C. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1997
The test-retest reliability of colored filter testing in relation to two symptom levels of dyslexia was evaluated using a forced-choice test procedure. Two tests, separated by two weeks, were conducted with 41 participants (ages 15 to 17). Results indicated poor test-retest reliability. (Author/DB)

Peer reviewedGross, Leon J. – Journal of Optometric Education, 1982
