Short-Term Memory Processes in Children with Reading and Arithmetic Learning Disabilities.
Siegel, Linda S.; Linder, Bruce A.
Developmental Psychology, v20 n2 p200-07 Mar 1984
Compares performance of 172 children aged 7 to 13 years on tasks involving visual or auditory presentation of rhyming and nonrhyming letters and an oral or written response. Results indicate insensitivity to phonological similarity for young children with disabilities; sensitivity improves with age, but deficits in short-term memory remain at least until adolescence.
