Abstract
First-grade students were administered the Boehm Test of Basic Concepts (BTBC), then given 15 weeks of instruction relevant to the concepts for which corresponding BTBC items were most frequently missed. Improvements in mid-year and end-of-year BTBC performance did not occur as a function of instruction, but a significant treatment effect did occur on a transfer measure, the Stanford Achievement Test. Results are discussed in terms of the sensitivity of the BTBC, possible nonlinguistic effects of the instructional program, and the practical significance of the treatment effect.
