What Learning-Disabled Readers Fail to Retrieve on Verbal Dichotic Tests: A Problem of Encoding, Retrieval, or Storage?

Swanson, H. Lee

Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology, v15 n3 p339-60 Sep 1987

Fifth-grade learning disabled and skilled readers (N=32) were compared on verbal dichotic listening tasks for free recall and cued recall of word lists organized by semantic, phonemic, and structural features. Results indicated that disabled readers were comparable on free recall but were inferior to skilled readers on cued recall. (Author/JW)
