A Critique of the Targeted Research and Development Program on Reading
Gephart's paper (1970) reports what purports to be an application of the convergence technique (Carrese & Baker, 1967) to the planning of a research and development program for reading. Actually, the Targeted Research and Development Program on Reading (TRDPR) is both more and less than this, and there is reason to question whether it should be considered an application of the convergence technique at all. It is more in that the plan includes a v…
A Field Test of Programed and Directed Tutoring
COMPARES THE EFFECTIVENESS of one and two sessions daily of programed tutoring versus directed tutoring when used to supplement classroom teaching of beginning reading in inner city schools. In programed tutoring, a technique derived from learning principles and programed instruction, details of the tutors' activities were tightly controlled by a prescribed sequence of materials and procedural rules which were highly responsive to the individual …
Programed Tutoring
THIS IS A summary report of ten experiments in which the technique of programed tutoring, applied to the teaching of beginning reading, is developed and given preliminary field tests. The behavior of professionally untrained persons in this technique is programed in agreement with principles of learning and programed instruction for individual teaching. A total of 400 children were tutored in the experiments. They included retarded children, slow…

Book publications in psychical research and spiritualism in wartime
The number of book publications (titles) listed under spiritualism and psychical research headings in publishers' comprehensive annual catalogues is presented for five-year periods from 1891 to 1940. A large but temporary increase in the number listed was found for both Great Britain and the United States during the 1916-20 period, a period which includes the last three years of World War I.
