Abstract
This study investigates the relationship between specific auditory and visual functions and reading performance. Pairs of second graders matched as good and poor readers on the basis of MA, IQ, and CA were tested with several subtests from the revised ITPA and the Monroe Visualization Test. The findings seem to suggest that poor readers were lacking primarily in auditory functions rather than visual.Keywords
