Sinossi

This book concerns measuring reading skills. It is not meant to be a compre­ hensive survey of reading research or a review of all possible approaches to reading measurement (although considerable attention is given to both subjects). Scientific measurement occurs only within the confines of a theory, and most reading tests are atheoretical.
