چکیده
The purpose of the present study was to determine if junior high school students with and without histories of otitis media differed in their reading abilities. Reading scores from the SRA Achievement Test(1978) were analyzed for sets of pair—matched students. Paired t-tests revealed that for the majority of the subtests analyzed, there were no significant differences between the two groups. Theoretical and clinical implications were discussed.
