  • Title: Improving the test-taking skills of learning-disabled students.
    Author: Scruggs TE, Tolfa D.
    Journal: Percept Mot Skills; 1985 Jun; 60(3):847-50. PubMed ID: 4022732.
    Abstract:
    16 learning-disabled second- and third-grade students were matched on previous years' achievement scores and grade and assigned at random to experimental and control conditions. Students in the experimental condition were given 8 20-min. sessions of training in test-taking skills particular to the Stanford Achievement Test. Analysis of test scores indicated trained students scored significantly higher on one subtest of a shortened version of the test than students who had not been trained.
