A Developmental Approach to Reading Disability: Accuracy and Speed Criteria of Normal and Deficient Reading Skill.
Lovett, Maureen W.
Child Development, v58 n1 p234-60 Feb 1987
Accuracy-disabled and rate-disabled young Canadian readers were compared to children who were "fluent normal" readers. Children in the latter group decoded at the same level of accuracy as the rate-disabled subjects but at a significantly faster rate. Specific deficiencies of each of the disabled groups were identified. (Author/RH)
