Cloy, Charles S.; And Others
Negro Educational Review, v35 n2 p83-87 Apr 1984
High school students trained in test-taking skills performed markedly higher on the Nelson-Denny Reading Test than did controls. On two subtests, vocabulary and comprehension, controls scored significantly lower than the experimental group. A relationship was noted between parental help with test-taking preparation and level of test performance. (CMG)
