"I Like To Take My Own Sweet Time": Case Study of a Child with Naming-Speed Deficits and Reading Disabilities.
Deeney, Theresa; Wolf, Maryanne; O'Rourke, Alyssa Goldberg
Journal of Special Education, v35 n3 p145-55 Fall 2001
This paper presents a case study of a reading disabled 9-year-old student with a profound single naming-speed deficit without a phonological deficit. It explores how a naming-speed deficit affects reading performance and theoretical assumptions regarding the role of naming speed in reading. A reading program specifically designed to address deficits in processing speed and fluency is described. (Contains references.) (Author/DB)
