The effects of assisted reading on 3 elementary students with
learning disabilities were evaluated using a multiple baseline
design. Data were collected from the students' oral reading from
their basal texts. The results indicated an increase in number of
words read correctly as well as a decrease in the number of words
read incorrectly when assisted reading was used in the classroom.
