Dewey, Deborah; Crawford, Susan G.; Kaplan, Bonnie J.
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v36 n1 p87-95 Jan-Feb 2003

The PRECAA was sensitive to group differences among children with reading disabilities, children with attention deficits, and combined disabilities. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
