- W295232908 abstract "The research findings reviewed in this article suggest that the reason poor readers may not benefit from perceptual training programs may be that they already possess the very skills educators are attempting to develop, and do not need this training. The present study attempts to further clarify this issue by determining whether children who are achieving at various reading levels score differently on perceptual and perceptual-motor tasks. PERCEPTUAL AND PERCEPTUAL-MOTOR TEST SCORES ARE NOT A CLUE TO READING ACHIEVEMENT IN SECOND GRADERS Dr. Jean R. Harber DUBNOFF CENTER FOR CHILD DEVELOPMENT AND EDUCA TlONAL THERAPY NORTHRIDGE, CALIFORNIA Recent studies have questioned the effectiveness of perceptual training programs in remediating reading difficulties (Cohen, 1969; Harrrnill, 1972; Larsen & Harrrnill, 1975; lVla.nn, 1970). Gupta, Ceci, and Slater (1978) present two possible explanations for the apparent failure of these programs. It could be that the programs have not effectively trained children in those perceptual-motor skills in which they are deficient. On the other hand, it could be that poor readers simply do not suffer from perceptual-motor handicaps and therefore do not need nor benefit from these types of training. There is recent empirical evidence which supports the second explanation. Larsen, Rogers, and Sowell (1976) and Harber (1979) compared the performance of normal and disabled learners on numerous perceptual and perceptual-motor tests and found that the two grouRs did not show educationally significant differences on these tests. Other researchers have also argued that factors other than perceptual difficulties may be responsible for poor reading performance (e.g., Vellutino, Steger, Moyer, Harding, & Niles, 1977; Wallace & Goldsmith 1977). Lakey and McNees (1975) and Lakey and Lefton (1976) studied good and poor readers' performance on visual matching tasks. They asked their subjects to select from a number of alternatives the individual letters, words, and strings of letters of varying lengths, or stings of squiggles which were identical to the stimulus items. They found that as the length of the strings increased, so did the difference between the performance of groups of poor and good readers. (Lakey & Lefton, 1976) Gupta et al (1978) hypothesized that the differences reported by Lakey and Lefton may be due to differences in cognitive, rather than perceptual, strategies. They suggested that good readers perform better than poor readers because they are able to use their verbal skills to facilitate performance on tasks frequently labeled as perceptual. In order to test their hypotheses, they conducted two studies. In the first study, they investigated the performance of groups of good and poor readers on a matching task which contained letter strings of variable length and on a matching task which contained abstract figures. Their findings showed no differences between good and poor readers on the abstract figures task, but significant differences between the two groups on the letter strings task. They interpreted these findings as indicative of subjects' use of nonperceptual (i.e., verbal) strategies to aid in the matching of letter strings. In the second study, they administered three matching tasks, one containing nonsense shapes; one, strings of consonants; and" @default.
