Bonner, Mary; And Others – 1981
The purposes of this study were to determine the modality strengths of each child in grades 1 to 5 at Butcher Children's School, Emporia, Kansas, and to ascertain whether modality can be linked to grade level, to reading achievement, or to sex. For identifying modality strength, the Swassing-Barbe Modality Index (SBMI), a matching-to-sample task,…

Meltzer, Lynn J. – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 1982
A set of 19 visual perceptual tasks was administered to six- to eight-year-old children, in order to differentiate three visual factors (visual synthesis, visual analysis, and perceptual speed) according to perceptual and conceptual complexity. The association between these perceptual measures, reading, and arithmetic was also assessed.…

Waugh, Ruth – 1971
One hundred and sixty-six second graders were administered the Illinois Test of Psycholinguistic Abilities (ITPA) and a visual and auditory memory test. Intraindividual discrepancies between a child's performance on comparable visual and auditory measures served to identify him as a visual or an auditory learner. Significantly more 5-year-old…

Bryant, Lynda Carol – 1976
To observe the relationship of auditory and visual receptive skills to achievement in reading, 80 eight-year-old children were given a diagnostic test battery which examined three receptive skills--attention to stimuli, discrimination, and memory--within three sensory modalities--auditory, visual, and auditory-visual. The control group consisted…
