Valentine, Esther P.; Francks, Olive R. – Reading Horizons, 1979

Swanson, Beverly B. – Reading Horizons, 1988
Investigated the reading strategies of 24 first grade students. Found that the "talk aloud" procedure (Olson, Duffy, & Mack, 1983) is a feasible tool for comprehension process research with young readers, and that it is possible to differentiate between the strategic preferences of good and poor beginning readers.
