Archives of Clinical Neurospsychology, 06/25/09
Kibby MY et al. – Semantic short-term memory (STM) had small correlations with word identification and pseudoword decoding across studies of reading performance; despite phonological STM moderately to strongly related to both basic reading skills. Overall results are consistent with the phonological core deficit model of dyslexia as only phonological STM was affected in dyslexia and related to basic reading skill.
Methods- Study of the nature of memory deficit in children/adolescents with dyslexia
- Evaluation by clinical memory measures
- Determination of extent to which semantic STM is related to basic reading performance
- Use of different samples for 2 studies: 1) Wide Range Assessment of Memory and Learning; 2) California Verbal Learning Test-Children's Version
- Phonological STM is deficient in children with dyslexia
- Semantic STM and visual–spatial STM are intact
- Long-term memory for both visual and verbal material is also intact
