Abstract | Examined whether age-related working memory deficits in learning disabled (LD) readers across four age groups (7, 10, 13, and 20) reflected retrieval efficiency or storage capacity problems. Found that LD readers' working memory performance was inferior to skilled readers' on verbal and visual-spatial working memory tasks across all ages. Differences increased on gain and maintenance conditions. Findings supported the general capacity explanation of reading group differences. (Author/KB) |
