Journal of American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus, 2007
To measure the effect of head tilt on reading rate and to determine whether a difference existed between the body or the text being tilted.The Wilkins Rate of Reading Test was used to measure rate of reading in a population of normal readers. In the first part of the study, rate of reading with a head tilt of 15 degrees and 30 degrees was measured; in ...

An Abbreviated Reading Speed Test
Optometry and Vision Science, 2005The Minnesota Low-Vision Reading Test (MNREAD) has been developed to measure reading speed. An abbreviated version of the MNREAD test was developed that presented only three large paragraphs and would be easier for children to complete.Fifty children ages 8 to 18 years, with normal eye examinations or refractive error alone, underwent testing of ...

Neuropsychologia, 1996
This study investigated possible causes of differences in reading speed between two alexic patients who read words letter by letter. As both patients appeared to rely on serial left-to-right processing of letters within words, the difference in reading speed did not seem to be related to any differences in the extent to which the patients could ...

Processing speed, naming speed, and reading.
Developmental Psychology, 1994With increasing age, children name familiar objects more rapidly, and these naming times are related to reading ability. The aim of this research was to determine if age-related change in naming time reflects (a) automtic access of familiar names due to greater familiarity with the named objects or (b) global change in speed of processing.
