Watt, Sarah J.; Watkins, Jessie R.; Abbitt, Jason – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2016
This review investigates effective interventions for teaching algebra to students with learning disabilities and evaluates the complexity and alignment of skills with the Common Core State Standards in math. The review includes the results of 10 experimental and 5 single-subject designs (N = 15) producing a moderate overall effect size (g = 0.48).…

A Comparison of the Influences of Verbal-Successive and Spatial-Simultaneous Factors on Achieving Readers in Fourth and Fifth Grade: A Multivariate Correlational Study.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Solan, Harold A. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1987
This study involving 38 normally achieving fourth and fifth grade children confirmed previous studies indicating that both spatial-simultaneous (in which perceived stimuli are totally available at one point in time) and verbal-successive (information is presented in serial order) cognitive processing are important in normal learning.

Sequential-Simultaneous Processing and Reading Skills in Primary Grade Children.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
McRae, Sandra G. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1986
The study examined relationships between two modes of information processing, simultaneous and sequential, and two sets of reading skills, word recognition and comprehension, among 40 second and third grade students. Results indicated there is a relationship between simultaneous processing and reading comprehension. (Author)

Kirby, John R.; Robinson, Gregory L. W. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1987
Evaluation of simultaneous and successive information processing skills, language and reading processes, and reading achievement of 105 reading disabled children (ages 7 to 15 years) indicated that subjects tended to employ simultaneous processing in reading tasks normally requiring successive processing.

Kroesbergen, Evelyn H.; Van Luit, Johannes E. H.; Naglieri, Jack A. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2003
This study examined relationships between mathematical learning difficulties (MLD) and the planning, attention, simultaneous, successive (PASS) theory of cognitive processing. PASS processes were assessed in 267 Dutch students with MLD. Results indicated students with MLD performed lower than peers on all "Cognitive Assessment System"…
