Effects of the Learning Disability Label, Quality of Writing Performance, and Examiner's Level of Expertise on the Evaluation of Written Products.
Graham, Steve; Dwyer, Ann
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v20 n5 p317-18 May 1987
Investigation of examiners' (N=44) evaluations of writing performance of learning-disabled (LD) students indicated that the LD label influenced ratings assigned by examiners (undergraduate education students) who were simply familiarized with the scoring procedure. Evaluations by examiners who received additional practice and training were not influenced by the LD label. (CB)
