The Disabled Reader in Years Past.

Pelosi, Peter L.

Journal of Research and Development in Education, v14 n4 p1-10 Sum 1981

Various approaches to research about reading disablities are described in historical perspective. The development of reading diagnosis is discussed in terms of: (1) a shift from a medical to an educational concern; (2) the use of standardized tests; (3) the movement in diagnosis from psychological laboratories to the classroom; and (4) the use of the case study methodology.
