Separate verbal memory and naming deficits in attention deficit disorder and reading disability.

Felton RH, Wood FB, Brown IS, Campbell SK, Harter MR.

Abstract

In this study, verbal memory and naming abilities were investigated in reading disabled (RD) and control children who were characterized according to the presence or absence of attention deficit disorder (ADD). Results indicate that deficits in learning and memory for recently acquired information occur as a function of ADD rather than RD while deficits in naming are specific to RD rather than ADD. We conclude that ADD is a major source of additional and separate cognitive morbidity in RD children.
