Factors Influencing the Response Latencies of Subnormal Children in Naming Pictures.

Elliott, Colin

British Journal of Psychology, v69 pt3 p295-303 Aug 1978, Aug78

The time taken to name 56 drawings of objects on five separate occasions were analyzed for 21 ESN(M) children (i.e., moderately educationally subnormal) and 21 ESN(S) children (i.e., severely educationally subnormal), matched for picture-naming vocabulary. Results were discussed in terms of the Oldfield (1964) and Lachman (1973) models of lexical memory storage. (Editor/RK)
