Abstract | A survey of compensatory and noncompensatory reading programs in grades 2, 4, and 6 of the U. S. public schools was carried out in spring 1972. Phase I, the subject of this report, involved two tasks: (1) describing what was meant by "compensatory reading", and (2) identifying the characteristics of schools in which compensatory reading programs are offered. Data descriptive of schools, teachers, students, and instructional practices were obtained via mail questionnaires. This report describes sampling procedures, questionnaire development, field procedures, reliability and validity checks, index development, a study of nonrespondents, and the results of data analysis. Included in the five appendixes are: Appendix A: sample design and nonresponse weight adjustments; Appendix B: copies of the questionnaires used in the study to elicit information from the principals and teachers about the students and reading program characteristics; Appendix C; nonrespondent telephone interview form; Appendix D: item response data for each of the questionnaires used in the study; Appendix E: the methodology for formalizing subjective notions about the effect of nonresponse in sample surveys.
