Duration--Syntax Association in Normal and Poor Readers.

Holzman, Thomas G.; Payne, M. Carr, Jr.

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v18 n10 p585-87 Dec 1985

Fifty-five poor readers and 58 normal readers in grade six were presented a modified version of B. Hamill's tone pattern-phrase matching procedure. Consistent with Hamill's adults, Ss tended to choose phrases which matched long tone durations to content words and short durations to function words. (Author/CL)
