The Relationship between Reading Level and Retention in Average and Supra Readers.
Metzger, Richard L.; Pambianco, Linda
Contemporary Educational Psychology, v10 n1 p52-57 Jan 1985
Average and above average (supra) readers (grades three and five) performed a partial report task with a variable interstimulus interval. Supra readers outperformed average readers when the interval was more than 200 milliseconds. Results support the concept of a continuous relationship between memory and reading level. (Author/BS)
