ADD Students with and without Dyslexia Differ in Sensitivity to Rhyme and Alliteration.

Ackerman, Peggy T.; And Others

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v23 n5 p279-83 May 1990

Eighty-two elementary school children with attention deficit disorder (ADD) and dyslexia made more errors than 83 normally reading children with ADD on a test of rhyme and alliteration. A subgroup of dyslexic children who were sensitive to rhyme and alliteration scored higher than other dyslexic children on a test of spatial ability. (Author/DB)
