The Effectiveness of Special Education: A Time Series Analysis of Reading Performance in Regular and Special Education Settings.

Marston, Douglas

Journal of Special Education, v21 n4 p13-26 Win 1987-88

The impact of regular and special education on 11 learning-disabled children in fourth through sixth grade was studied by analyzing their slope of improvement on curriculum-based measures of reading scores. A time series analysis indicated that daily reading instruction in a resource room was a more effective intervention than regular education. (Author/JDD)
