Answer: “Found substantial effects sizes from pretest to posttest on various measures of reading comprehension: recall, strategy competence, and standardized reading comprehension test scores.”
Comment: I think I would have more confidence from using these multiple measures than simply a single state multiple choice test. RayS.

Note: The editors of RTE said that so much research was available they did not want to burden the paper edition of the journal with it, so they relegated their annotated reports on research to the Internet.
