Abstract
This paper presents an experimental study, using an experimental group and control group, of the effects of visual perception training on the reading ability of eighth grade students. The Michigan Tracking Program and MKM Hunting Trails were the perceptual training programs used in the experiment. A null hypothesis was assumed and retained based on the statistical results of a t test at the .05 level of significance.
Recommendations included further investigation of the relationship of perceptual training to reading on a longitudinal base and employment of a larger population sample.
