Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2009This article synthesizes some of the published literature that selectively compares the cognitive functioning of children with math disabilities (MDs) with average-achieving children and poor readers (children with reading disabilities [RDs] or comorbid disabilities [RDs + MDs]).

Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 1973
SUMMARYThe incidence of reading disability in 676 twin children was 14.5 per cent, somewhat higher than the figure usually given for the general population (10 per cent). Monozygotic twins were concordant for reading disability in 84 per cent of the pairs, dizygotic twins in 29 per cent, a significant difference (p <.001). These findings support the

Pediatrics, 1972I have reviewed with concerned interest the article by Kenny et al. and the letters in response. I feel that though the primary remediative responsibilities should fall within educational facilities, the identification of the learning-handicapped individual in need of further investigation and the monitoring of the adequacy of response to remediative ...

Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1973
A basic problem of urban school systems is their difficulty in teaching many black and Puerto Rican children in poverty areas to read. A theory of cognitive integration is one possible answer to this problem. The theory holds that many black and Puerto Rican children have difficulty in making total integrated responses to words and that this is ...

Decoding, Reading, and Reading Disability
Remedial and Special Education, 1986To clarify the role of decoding in reading and reading disability, a simple model of reading is proposed, which holds that reading equals the product of decoding and comprehension. It follows that there must be three types of reading disability, resulting from an inability to decode, an inability to comprehend, or both.

Reading and Phonological Awareness in Reading-Disabled Adults
Developmental Neuropsychology, 2002Sixty-eight students with reading disabilities (RDs) and 55 non-reading-disabled university undergraduates composed the sample. Students with RDs met either low achievement (LA) or regression-based discrepancy (D) criteria. In addition to IQ and reading decoding measures, all participants received measures of phonological awareness (PA), confrontation ...

The genetics of specific reading disability
Annals of Human Genetics, 1976Members of the immediate families of twenty children with specific reading disability were examined to determine the prevalence of reading disability within the families. A procedure was developed for identifying adults who may have compensated for a disability manifested more clearly in childhood. Forty-five percent of 75 first-degree relatives of the

Reading Comprehension and Reading Disability
2015Virtually all reading researchers and theorists, regardless of their views of reading development, regard comprehension as the gold standard in de ning prima facie reading dif culties. Thus, even if a good comprehender exhibited some de cits in particular skill areas (e.g., phonics or monitoring), we would say that those variations from the ideal ...
