QUEIROZ, Anna Beatriz Müller; MARTINS, Thais Cristine    GIOIA, Paula Suzana. Generalized reading on thesis and dissertations electronically available: some Brazilian production characteristics. []. , 13, 3, pp.180-193. ISSN 1516-3687.

The research production on recombinative/generalized reading can contribute to more effective results in reading performance of Brazilian children. This study aimed to describe some characteristics of electronically available thesis and dissertations about recombinative/generalized reading produced by Brazilian Universities. On-line databases and bibliographical references were searched. Within 1990-2010 were found 66 studies (nine doctoral dissertations and 57 master's thesis). The participants were not identified only at seven studies in which the study's copy or abstract were nor electronically available. There were found 19 advisors who worked at nine different Universities. Most of these Universities were public schools (seven). No production was found at 1991-1993 and 1998-1999. Since 2000 there was at least one study per year. In 2007, a great increase was followed by a light decrease throughout the next years at doctoral dissertations and master's thesis production. Most of the participants were children who had reading problems at school.
