It was reported that in English, phonological awareness and working memory were predictive
variables for reading ability. And phonological awareness and working memory correlated each
other. This study concerned whether the same relations were found in Japanese among these three
variables even if Japanese has a unique system of letters. We administered phoneme-deletion and
saying backward tasks as phonological awareness task, short version of Japanese S-CPT as
working memory task, and reading battery in normal 4th to 6th grade children of primary school in
Japan. We will show basic data for developing method of teaching for children with dyslexia.

The present study was undertaken to determine the relationship of intelligence with academic
achievement on CBT in children with learning disability. A total of 300 children of the age group
8-15 years attending LD clinic at L.T.M.G. hospital were enrolled. There were 223 (74%) males.
119 (40%) had history of failure in annual exam. The WISC-Indian adaptation and CBT were
administered individually. The mean level for Global IQ-100.4. The CBT assessed reading,
mathematics, comprehension, spelling, thought process and written language skills. The multiple
regression analysis revealed that 18% of variance in CBT is predicted from the score on WISC.
3028.150 A research on the representation of problem-solving of children with mathematics
learning disability, Xingchun Xu, China
Based on the 4th grade students of primary school, the study discussed the representations of
children with mathematics learning disability by contrasting that of excellent children in
mathematic through protocol analysis. It was found: the time of problem representation of children
with mathematics learning disability was short; the type of problem representations of children
with mathematics learning disability was singular; and the representation of children with
mathematics learning disability was lack of efficiency.
3028.151 An experiment on matacognitive of word-thinking processing of the stdents with
learning disability, Yonglei Zhou, Dalian Navy Academy, China
This study was an experiment on matacognitive of word-thinking processing of 15 students with
learning disbilities and 15 excellent students. The results showed that these students’ abilities of
word-thinking processing in self-regulation, self-awareness and self-control were significantly
poorer than those of the excellent students. And there was a significant difference, between these
two groups of students, in self-regulating abilities of concept-driven processing and percept-driven
processing, but no significant changes were found in the abilities of self-awareness and
self-control. The abilities of word-thinking processing of the students with learning disbilities in
self-evalution were significantly poorer than that of the excellent students.
