The Far Side of Heterogeneity: A Critical Analysis of Empirical Subtyping Research in Learning Disabilities.
Kavale, Kenneth A.; Forness, Steven R.
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v20 n6 p374-82 Jun-Jul 1987

It is suggested that researchers strive for more commonality in the methods and measures used for subtype analysis leading to a single classification scheme to reduce heterogeneity and improve educational efforts.
