Investigated the hypothesis that children who sustain specific reading disabilities experience difficulty in abstracting and generalizing the invariant components of words containing redundant elements because of basic dysfunction in categorical processing. Subjects were 120 poor and normal readers from the fourth, fifth, and sixth grades.…

Peer reviewedGordon, Donald A.; Baumeister, Alfred A. – Journal of Genetic Psychology, 1972
Pattern of results suggests that retardates were relatively deficient in the spontaneous use of effective rehearsal mechanisms, but could perform as well as normals when instructed to use a specific rehearsal strategy. (Authors)
