Sentence Depth Measures as Predictors of Reading Difficulty
TWO SUMMARY MEASURES of sentence complexity-depth of postponement and number of levels in a sector analysis-were evaluated as predictors of reading difficulty. Criteria were cloze scores and listed grade level equivalents for 80 of the McCall-Crabbs Standard Test Lessons in Reading. The Lorge Readability Formula was also recalculated, using both the Test Lessons and the Miller-Coleman Readability Scale. The two sentence complexity measures were f…
Evaluating Readiness for Learning to Read
questions that readiness research sets out to answer. It is argued that research in reading readiness has typically been guided by a mistaken conceptualization of reading readiness and that reorientation of the research toward a more cogent statement of the central problem is a prerequisite to real advances in the field. The second type of recommendation concerns several specific shortcomings of data analysis and interpretation that are particula…
