Assessment and Remediation of a Phonemic Discrimination Deficit in Reading Disabled Second and Fourth Graders.

Hurford, David P.; Sanders, Raymond E.

Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v50 n3 p396-415 Dec 1990

Two experiments examined the role of phonemic processing in disabled readers. The first involved disabled and nondisabled second and fourth grade readers' ability to identify and discriminate phonemes. The second examined the effect of phonemic stimuli training on disabled readers who performed poorly in the first experiment. Training significantly improved performance. (SH)
