Normal and one subtype of disabled readers were compared in their visual event-related potentials (ERPs) that were elicited by primed and unprimed words during a recognition memory task. The primed words were preceded by a picture having the same denotative meaning, while unprimed words were preceded by a picture having a non-associated meaning. Normal readers exhibited consistently greater amplitude than the disabled readers to unprimed words with a negative wave at 455 ms (N400). For the disabled readers, this N400 was evident, though somewhat smaller, than for controls, at fronto-central placements, but absent at the lateral parietal and occipital sites. Priming a word with a picture reduced N400 amplitude for both the normal and disabled readers. There were no remarkable differences between groups in their ERPs to the pictures. The pattern of ERP results obtained seems to reflect a failure of this subtype of disabled readers to engage long-term, semantic memory, while their short-term linguistic processing is intact.
