The effects of antecedent color on reading for students with learning disabilities and co-occurring attention-deficit/ hyperactivity disorder.
The effects of color on the reading recognition and comprehension of 3 students with learning disabilities and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder were assessed in a single-subject design. Color did not enhance sight-word learning; for longer reading comprehension tasks, color had an immediate effect across and within sessions.
