College Students' Conditional Knowledge about Reading.
Lorch, Robert F., Jr.; And Others
Journal of Educational Psychology, v85 n2 p239-52 Jun 1993

Results of 2 experiments with 377 college students identified 10 distinct categories of reading situations, which constitute an approximation of a typology of reading situations that could organize research on reading strategies.
