Abstract

This paper presents the follow-up study of a remedial reading program for junior high school students. The purpose of the program was to improve the reading ability of these students using the "Modification of Reading Behavior" program. Using pre-test and post-test results, it was found that the majority of the students in the program made significant improvement in reading ability.

The follow-up study indicated that the gains made in reading ability in the original program were maintained approximately one year after termination of the program.
