Reading level increase after application of L. Ron Hubbard's Study Technology
In a project done in Brixton, England (a suburb of London), 8 to 13 year-old students were put through a specially prepared course in reading skills based on the study technology of L. Ron Hubbard. The course focused on finding misunderstood words in their current studies and each student spent 8 to 10 hours over 10 days doing the course. Based on standard reading tests, the students who went through this course gained an average of 1.3 years in reading age. A control group, students who weren't put through this course, actually dropped slightly in reading skills over the same period of time, losing an average of 0.03 years in reading age, attributable to misunderstood words.
