Reading Accuracy as a Function of Teaching Strategy, Personality and Word Complexity in Seven-Year-Old Children.
Riding, R. J.; Smith, E. M. Rigby
Educational Studies, v10 n3 p263-72 1984
The reading accuracy of seven-year-old children was found to be significantly better with the installment rather than the whole method of oral reading. In addition, word complexity, extraversion, and sex interacted in their effects on reading accuracy. The results are discussed in terms of their implication for classroom practice. (Author/RM)
