Vellutino, Frank R.; And Others

Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 19, 2, 223-232, Apr 75

Presents an investigation of the hypothesis that specific reading disability is attributable to inadequate visual memory. A total of 126 subjects, ages 7-14, who were asked to demonstrate retention of randomly arranged Hebrew letters on three separate occasions, provided no evidence that deficient visual memory is a likely source of reading disability.
