Memory in learning disabled children: digit span and the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test.

Scores on the Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT) were compared to WISC-R digit span results in a sample of 153 learning disabled students. With statistical controls for age and IQ, regression analyses indicated no significant relationships between the RAVLT and longest forward span, longest backward span and total digit span raw score. Factor analysis of the RAVLT variables, forward span, backward span and total digit span raw score yielded three factors that were interpreted to represent a long term memory factor, a short-term memory factor with high coding demands and a short-term memory factor with low coding demands. Conclusions were made regarding the inadequacy of using only digit span when making diagnostic statements about the auditory memory functioning of learning disabled students.
