q3 i? In Experiment 1, no-response rates differed among age groups but showed no difference as a function of reading skill. → Chiappe 2000

Error analysis of omissions in Experiment 1's blocked listening span task. Post hoc comparisons indicated children under 10 committed more no-response errors than all older groups; there were no differences in omission rates by reading skill.

"The rate of no responses differed significantly among the five age groups [F(4,624) = 8.59, p < .001). However, neither the main effectof reading group [F(l ,624) < 1, n.s.] nor the age X reading group interaction was sig- nificant [F(4,419) < 1, n.s.]."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Age and Developmental Stage — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes

Related Claims¶

• Disabled readers show working memory deficits at every age on the blocked listening span task — related
• Omission and commission errors in n-back tasks have different correlates and may represent different processes — related
• Age-related decline in span is associated only with the access function of inhibition, and only among skilled readers — related
• Increased motivation eliminated ADHD–TD differences on most attention measures but differences persisted in complex multitasking and commission errors — related
• Children's text comprehension test performance improved from T1 to T2, driven mainly by second graders, with fewer omission errors over time — related
• Blocked-format span declines after age 20 but mixed-format span does not, implicating proactive interference in aging declines — related
• Disabled readers produce more current nonfinal and extraneous intrusions, implicating access and restraint failures — related
