• Reading Fluency: More Than Automaticity? More Than a Concern for the Primary Grades? (2009, unknown): “Previous research (Rasinski et al., 2005), however, does indicate that a significant number of secondary students do experience difficulties in reading fluency that are associated with reading comprehension.”

• Evidence–Based Strategies for Reading Instruction of Older Students with Learning Disabilities (2008, background): “While fluency does not directly cause comprehension, it does play a facilitative role, and for some struggling adolescents, instruction and practice in this area may be useful (Rasinki et al., 2005).”
• Developing reading fluency: A study of extensive reading in EFL (2008, background): “The students were told that they would be asked three comprehension questions about the text after the rate test so that they should read the rate text at their normal speed (Cziko, 1980; Rasinski et al., 2005).”
