Identification of subtypes of retarded readers: A neuropsychological, multivariate approach

Abstract
Subtypes of reading-disabled children were identified by means of a multivariate classification procedure. These subtypes are described in terms of their differential patterns of performance on a comprehensive battery of neuropsychological measures. Comparisons are made with subtypes identified by previous investigators, and some hypotheses with respect to the neuropsychological implications of the results are presented.
