Verbal and Visual Problems in Reading Disabilities.

Eden, Guinevere F.; And Others

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v28 n5 p272-90 May 1995

Ninety-three children (ages 10-12) were compared on phonological and visuospatial abilities. Children with a reading disability performed worse than nondisabled children on many visual and eye movement tasks. Sixty-eight percent of the variance in reading ability could be predicted by combining visual and phonological scores in a multiple regression. (Author/JDD)
