Is It True That the Differences in Reading Performance between Students with and without LD Cannot Be Explained by IQ?

Glez, Juan E. Jimenez; Lopez, Mercedes Rodrigo

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v27 n3 p155-63 Mar 1994

A sample of 133 Spanish children (ages 8 to 13) was classified by IQ and reading level and given a lexical processing task. The study found that IQ did not explain differences between learning-disabled (LD) or nondisabled (NLD) children in lexical processing. Lexical and sublexical parameters had a greater influence on LD students than NLD students, independent of IQ. (Author/DB)
