Direct linkNurit Paz-Baruch – Educational Studies, 2024
The study identified the cognitive mechanisms that underly individual differences in mathematics and reading. There is little systematic evidence regarding the connections between cognitive capabilities, mathematics and reading among high-school students with typical development. Moreover, the study aimed to examine whether or not gender is…

Liu, Sisi; Liu, Duo – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2020
This study examined whether visual-spatial attention could predict Chinese reading achievement longitudinally beyond some well-established reading precursors. A total of 257 second- and third-grade Hong Kong Chinese-speaking children participated in the study. Visual-spatial attention was measured by visual search tasks, which assessed the skills…

Gullick, Margaret M.; Demir-Lira, Özlem Ece; Booth, James R. – Developmental Science, 2016
Low socioeconomic status (SES) has been repeatedly linked with decreased academic achievement, including lower reading outcomes. Some lower SES children do show skills and scores commensurate with those of their higher SES peers, but whether their abilities stem from the same systems as high SES children or are based on divergent strategies is…

Miller, Daniel C. – School Psychology Forum, 2015
The Woodcock-Johnson-Fourth edition (WJ IV; Schrank, McGrew, & Mather, 2014a) and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Fifth edition (WISC-V; Wechsler, 2014) are two of the major tests of cognitive abilities used in school psychology. The complete WJ IV battery includes the Woodcock-Johnson IV Tests of Cognitive Abilities (Schrank,…

Byrd, D.A.; Jacobs, D.M.; Hilton, H.J.; Stern, Y.; Manly, J.J. – Brain and Cognition, 2005
The current study explored possible sources of demographic effects through analyses of errors from modified formats of the Benton Visual Retention Test (BVRT) completed by African American elders. Results indicate that: (1) reading level was a stronger predictor of BVRT performance than years of education; (2) on the single-item matching format of…

Peer reviewedMason, Mildred – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1980
Two experiments using varying duration exposures related reading skill in adults to initial encoding of location information. Results suggest that the role of perception in reading has been underestimated because emphasis has been on item perception, not perception of spatial location. (Author/CP)

Peer reviewedBattle, James; Labercane, George – Reading Horizons, 1985
Examines the relationship of achievement in reading, spelling, and arithmetic with a variety of other measures, including tests of visual memory and visual-motor association. Concludes that visual association is more closely related to achievement in reading, arithmetic, and spelling than is visual memory. (HOD)
