Knowledge of Revision and Revising Behavior among Students with Learning Disabilities.
MacArthur, Charles A.; And Others
Learning Disability Quarterly, v14 n1 p61-73 Win 1991
The study, with 26 junior high learning-disabled students, found that students' predominant conception and application of revision to written work was correction of errors. Fewer than half of all revisions were rated as improvements. The only type of revision that positively affected overall quality was addition of T-units. (Author/DB)
