The (Artefactual) Remission of Reading Disability: Psychometric Lessons in the Study of Stability and Change in Behavioral Development.
Fergusson, David M.; And Others
Developmental Psychology, v32 n1 p132-40 Jan 1996
Two longitudinal studies examined patterns of reading disability in children. Results indicated that remission of reading disability was relatively common with up to 37% of reading-disabled children showing remission within a 2-year period. Results suggest that the presence of measurement errors may lead to misleading impression of the rate of remission of these problems. (MOK)
