Peer reviewedMcIntyre, Curtis W.; And Others – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1981
To test the suggestion that a deficit in selective attention is characteristic of learning disabled (LD) but not hyperactive (H) children, 72 students (12 LDH, 12 H, and 36 normal Ss) were timed on visual search tasks. (Author)

Compared was the visual memory of 18 deaf and 18 normal hearing children (7- to 12-years-old). Ss' visual discrimination and visual memory were tested with filmstrip materials from Project LIFE (Language Improvement to Facilitate Education). Time scores and error scores were used to measure the performances of both groups. Results showing that…

Peer reviewedLerer, Robert J.; And Others – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1979
Fifty hyperactive and learning disabled children (8 to 12 years old) were selected for study because of severe handwriting difficulties. The children received methylphenidate (Ritalin) or placebo under double blind conditions. Twenty-six students (52 percent) showed improvement in overall handwriting following the administration of methylphenidate…

PDF pending restorationSwanson, Lee – 1977
The hypothesis that reading difficulty of learning disabled (LD) children is attributable to deficiencies in verbal encoding was investigated with 60 LD and normal children (mean CA=9.1, mean IQ=103.5). Ss were compared on recall of a serial short-term memory task after pre-training of named and unnamed stimulus conditions. Data suggested that…
