Effects of Relative Competence on Learning Disabled Children's Oral Reading Performance.
Gottlieb, Barbara W.
Learning Disability Quarterly, v7 n1 p108-12 Win 1984

Results revealed that children who read with similar-ability peers performed significantly better than with super-ability peers. (Author)
