6. Describe your own personal reaction to this study. Do you think that it was valid? Using
your critical eye share whether or not you think this study is important for the real
school testing?
I do think this study was valid to a point. The study was done with 112 third grade
students in low socioeconomic backgrounds. I feel that this was not an all-around great study
without all levels of socioeconomic backgrounds and reading levels. I do feel that this study was
great to see how reading is a component in the learning process to see if the children could be at
risk for a learning disabilities, but many different studys would have to be done to determine if
that is the case for that student. It could be very important for real school testing. It would be a
great study to show teachers what they would need to be more focused on in there reading
groups and to also found out what level there students are at in reading. This would also show the
teacher if the student might be showing signs of a learning disability.
