The Utility of Phonic Generalizations in the Primary Grades.
Clymer, Theodore
Reading Teacher, v50 n3 p182-87 Nov 1996
Presents a classic study originally published in this journal in 1963, which analyzed 45 phonic generalizations found in teacher's manuals. Finds that only 18 of the 45 generalizations are useful in having a reasonable degree of application (valid 75% of the time) to words commonly met in primary grade material. (SR)
