Reading Difficulties, Behavior, and Social Status.
McMichael, Paquita
Journal of Educational Psychology, v72 n1 p76-86 Feb 1980
The effect of reading difficulties and antisocial behavior on peer rejection and popularity was studied with 198 lower-class boys, grades 1 and 2. Poor readers who were stable and conformed to classroom requirements were no more rejected than good readers who conformed; however, they were less popular. (Author/CP)
