Anderson, Nina J.; Rozenman, Michelle; Pennington, Bruce F.; Willcutt, Erik G.; McGrath, Lauren M. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2023
This study examined whether domain-general cognitive weaknesses in processing speed (PS) or executive functioning (EF) moderate the relation between word reading scores and anxiety such that lower word reading scores in combination with lower cognitive scores are associated with higher anxiety symptoms. The sample consisted of 755 youth ages 8-16…

Paul L. Morgan; Adrienne D. Woods; Yangyang Wang – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2023
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) overdiagnosis and overtreatment unnecessarily exposes children to potential harm and contributes to provider and community skepticism toward those with moderate or severe symptoms and significant impairments, resulting in less supportive care. Yet, which sociodemographic groups of children are…

Reading Fluency in Chinese Children with Reading Disabilities and/or ADHD: A Key Role for Morphology
Li, Miao; Georgiou, George; Kirby, John R.; Frijters, Jan C.; Zhao, Wei; Wang, Tingzhao – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2023
The Triangle Model of Reading proposes that phonology, orthography, and semantics are crucial to understand word reading and reading disability (RD). Morphology has been added as a binding agent to this model. However, it is unclear how these variables relate to word reading in children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or…

Canu, Will H.; Stevens, Anne E.; Ranson, Loren; Lefler, Elizabeth K.; LaCount, Patrick; Serrano, Judah W.; Willcutt, Erik; Hartung, Cynthia M. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2021
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is characterized by inattentive, hyperactive, and impulsive behaviors. Impairment in individuals diagnosed with ADHD is significant; one such domain of impairment is achieving a college education. College students with ADHD tend to have lower grade point averages, take longer to graduate, and have…

Luoni, Chiara; Scorza, Maristella; Stefanelli, Silvia; Fagiolini, Barbara; Termine, Cristiano – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2023
Developmental dyscalculia (DD) has long been thought to be determined by multiple components. Dyscalculia has high comorbidity with other learning and developmental disabilities, including reading and writing disorders, attention deficits, and problems in visual/spatial skills, short memory, and working memory. This study aims to assess prevalence…

Kim, Young-Suk Grace – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2022
This article presents the application of the interactive dynamic literacy (IDL) model (Kim, 2020b) toward understanding difficulties in learning to read and write. According to the IDL model, reading and writing are part of communicative acts that draw on largely shared processes and skills as well as unique processes and skills. As such, reading…

Middleton, Anna E.; Farris, Emily A.; Ring, Jeremiah J.; Odegard, Timothy N. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2022
Great strides have been made in the development of effective methods of instruction for children with dyslexia. However, individual response to treatment varies, and weaknesses persist for some students with dyslexia despite otherwise effective instruction. Continued efforts are needed to support the prospective identification of poor response,…

Tamm, Leanne; Loren, Richard E. A.; Peugh, James; Ciesielski, Heather A. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2021
This study investigated the association of a performance-based measure of executive functioning (EF) with academic, social, and behavioral performance ratings in a convenience sample of 153 children aged 5 to 12 (78% male, 83% Caucasian) diagnosed with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Multivariate regression showed that above and…
