Abstract

The scientific study of reading problems began in the laboratories of Europe about the middle of the nineteenth century. The motive for these studies was the interest in the psychological processes involved in reading. Prior to 1900 most of the investigations were made in Germany and France. Since that date scientific interest in reading has increased so rapidly in this country that the United States now surpasses all other countries in productive work in this field.
