Relation between the abilities of word finding and reading.
Application of a word finding test to the discourse of two groups of adolescents which differed in their abilities to comprehend written texts.
Application of the Test of Word Finding Discourse in 20 participants (group 1 = 10 e group II = 10).
There was no difference between the groups regarding the global word finding index; as for specific behaviors, word substitution was statistically significant and did differentiate the groups; as for the comparison with American standards, the use of unspecific words was statistically significant; the expected linear decrease for all of the behaviors was not observed.
A linear and reciprocal relation between word finding and difficulties in reading does not exist.
词汇查找能力与阅读能力之间的关系。
将一项词汇查找测试应用于两组在书面文本理解能力上存在差异的青少年话语中。
对20名参与者（第一组 = 10人，第二组 = 10人）进行词汇查找话语测试。
两组在总体词汇查找指数方面没有差异；至于具体行为，词汇替换在统计学上具有显著意义，且确实区分了两组；与美国标准相比，非特定词汇的使用在统计学上具有显著意义；未观察到所有行为预期的线性下降。
词汇查找与阅读困难之间不存在线性和相互的关系。
