The Influence of Improved Reading Skill on Writing Skill.
Belanger, Joe; Martin, R. Glenn
Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v30 n3 p194-212 Sep 1984
Four experimental reading-treatment classes (n=94) and four control classes (n=100) wrote pre- and post-compositions which were evaluated for overall quality, syntactic density, T-unit length, productivity, and selected grammatical errors. Analysis of results found significant differences in reading skills but no differences in writing skills. The post-compositions were remarkably similar. (MM)
