Pisecco, Stewart; Baker, David B.; Silva, Phil A.; Brooke, Mark
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v34 n2 p98-106 Mar-Apr 2001
This study examined early childhood characteristics of 82 11-year- old boys with either reading disabilities (RD) only, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) only, or both conditions. At ages 3 and 5 the RD only boys had performed poorly on measures of receptive and expressive language, whereas the RD/ADHD groups performed poorly on measures of receptive language and exhibited more behavior problems.
