Role of Memory in Learning Disabilities: Implications for Reading, Math, Writing, Schemes and Mind Maps of Learning disability

Learning DisabilitiesSpecial EducationEducational PsychologyNeuropsychology

The concept of crystallized intelligence, which refers to the ability to apply previously learned information to new material. How deficits in crystallized intelligence and related memory abilities can impact achievement in reading, math, and written expression for individuals with learning disabilities. Insights into the importance of language development, vocabulary knowledge, listening abilities, long-term retrieval, and short-term memory in learning and academic success.

What you will learn

  • How does crystallized intelligence affect reading achievement?
  • What role does long-term retrieval play in math achievement?
  • How does short-term memory impact written expression?

An Explanation of Crystallized Intelligence as it Relates to a  Learning Disability  Crystallized Intelligence involves the ability to apply previously learned information to new material.  Students with a deficit in this area are likely to have reduced vocabularies and limited background  knowledge.   Links to Achievement in Reading and Math:   Crystallized abilities, especially one's language development, vocabulary knowledge, and the ability to  listen are important for reading. This ability is related to reading comprehension in particular. Low  crystallized abilities may hamper an individual's ability to comprehend written text due to lack of  vocabulary knowledge, basic concepts, and general life experiences that are needed to understand the  text. Crystallized abilities, including language development, vocabulary knowledge and listening abilities  are important to math achievement at all ages. These abilities become increasingly more important with  age. Low crystallized abilities may hamper an individual's ability to comprehend word problems due to  lack of vocabulary knowledge. They may hamper one's ability to learn basic math processes, such as long  division, due to impairments in one's ability to listen and follow sequential directions.  Links to achievement in Written Expression/Oral Language:   Crystallized abilities, such as language development, vocabulary knowledge, and general information are  important to writing achievement after age 7. These abilities become increasingly more important with  age as students are required to draw upon previously learned vocabulary and experiences to generate  compositions. Crystallized abilities, especially one's language development, vocabulary knowledge, and  the ability to listen are important for both listening comprehension and oral expression. Low crystallized  abilities may hamper an individual's ability to comprehend oral communication due to lack of vocabulary  knowledge, basic concepts, and general life experiences that are needed to understand the information  being presented.  Long Term Retrieval involves the ability to store and retrieve symbol names over a period of time,  holding the information in memory while attending to new information. Students with a deficit in this  area may have difficulty such as learning the names of the letters of the alphabet or memorization of  math facts.    Links to Achievement in Reading and Math:   Long Term Retrieval abilities are particularly important for reading. For example, elementary school  children who have difficulty naming objects or categories of objects rapidly may have difficulty in  reading. Associative memory abilities also play a role in reading achievement. Long Term Retrieval  abilities are important to math calculation skills. For example, students with deficits in long term  retrieval may have difficulty with basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and/or division facts when  encountered within a math problem.
