The Effects of Repeated Readings on the Development of Lower Identification Skills of FL Readers.
Taguchi, Etsuo
Reading in a Foreign Language, v11 n1 p97-119 Aut 1997
Investigates the effects of repeated readings of a passage in a foreign language (English) on the ability of slow beginning readers at a Japanese university to increase their oral and silent reading rates. Results indicate that, for practice passages, silent reading rates increased significantly. This transfer of practice effects to a new passage was not significant in either oral or silent rates.
