Hurford, David P.; And Others

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v26 n3 p167-77 Mar 1993

This study examined the development of reading and phonological processing abilities of 209 first graders assessed at the beginning and end of the school year. The discriminant analysis, based on reading and intelligence data, correctly identified later group membership (students with and without reading disabilities and "garden variety" poor readers) of 207 of the 209 children.
