A Comparative Investigation of the Affects of Parental Cooperation and No Known Parental Cooperation in Children’s Reading Skills

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

<p>Due to the low economic area from which the subjects for this experiment were chosen, many were lacking in environmental experiences which contributed to their growth in reading skills and interests in the primary grades. This experiment was devised as a means to study reading difficulties in children from a low socioeconomic area, while, at the same time, parents were used to help overcome those problems. The main purpose of this study was to compare and contrast improvement in reading interest and reading skills in matched groups of subjects of an experimental and a control group.</p>
