Parents' and children's expectations about Irlen (tinted) lenses.
Additional unpublished data are presented from a study by Cotton and Evans in 1990 on the use of Irlen (tinted) lenses as an intervention for 22 children with a reading disability. These data reinforce the earlier conclusion that the random facilitatory effects of the lenses are very likely attributional and motivational in nature.
