Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

The article, "Relative Importance of Intelligence and Visual Perception in Predicting Reading Achievement," by Quentin R. Bryan published in the California Journal of Educational Research for 1964? The study concludes that "visual perception appears to have relatively more weight than intelligence and reading readiness in predicting reading success in the first grade."

The Science Of Linguistic Laisser-Aller, Louis Foley

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Those of us who are unapologetically devoted to the cause of correct English are not necessarily so hopelessly oldfogyish as some of the "scientific" popularizers of linguistics take us to be. We are not harking back to any imaginary "good old days." Some of us would say unhesitatingly that the best English of today, all things considered, is the best there ever was. We are not disposed, how ever, to accept blithely on the ground of "usage" just any sort of careless confusion or ignorant corruption merely because it has considerable currency. Indeed, one may well contend that there is …

Little Things Can Make Reading Easier, Louis Foley

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

In recent years, specialists in linguistics have become increasingly aware of a fundamental reason for poor reading. That is the reading of words one by one, instead of promptly recognizing their grouping, the patterns in which they are joined, or in other words sentence structure. The way a person reads orally seems to be a reliable indication of how he reads silently, for as a leading authority has remarked, "it is not likely that a word-caller in oral reading will read silently by language structures."* so it should be easy to determine in any case whether this basic fault is …

An Analysis Of The Rules Describing The Use Of Subordination, Mildred Eastwood Mcbride

Graduate Student Research Papers

Subordination is not Mt. Everest, but neither is it a molehill which can be covered in one easy step, and this is what our textbooks try to do. Unfortunately, there is no single easy way to teach the use of subordination, and this paper cannot offer any positive remedy for the inadequacies of our college handbooks. It will, however, discuss the varieties of opinions about the subject, explore several possible approaches, and offer some suggestions for a changed method of teaching subordination to our students.

Childhood Aphasia, Beatrice O. L. Williams

Graduate Student Research Papers

Childhood Aphasia is not to be confused with mental retardation, deafness, hard of hearing nor the socially and emotionally disturbed, although the symptomology is comparative in nature. Only through differential diagnosis, involving the services and cooperation of specialists in these various fields is it properly diagnosed.

Literary Study And Its Tradition: A Handbook Guide For Graduate Students In English., James Sebree Loveall

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Every serious student of English, no matter how many years separate him from the M.A. or Ph. D. degrees, must develop to a high degree the essential quality of independence which allows him to pursue investigation in his subject more or less on his own. He cannot continue to bother librarians for every specific source of information which he way need in pursuit of his assigned or self-imposed tasks either in class or out. He should know his way around the area of bibliography--the earlier in his academic career, the better. Surely his first ventures in this direction should not …
