# Description: Results of an experiment to test whether directed reading
# activities in the classroom help elementary school students improve
# aspects of their reading ability.  A treatment class of 21 third-grade
# students participated in these activities for eight weeks, and a control
# class of 23 third-graders followed the same curriculum without the
# activities. After the eight-week period, students in both classes took a
# Degree of Reading Power (DRP) test which measures the aspects of reading
# ability that the treatment is designed to improve. 
#
# Number of cases: 23 - Control, 21 - Treatment

# Variable Names: 
#    1. Control group: Control
