Abstract
► Individuals with intellectual disability (ID) present reading difficulties. ► Text connectives are expected to facilitate comprehension in poor readers. ► Two experiments tested this prediction in poor readers with ID. ► Low familiar temporal and causal connectives facilitated comprehension. ► Connectives inform about text difficulty to identify suitable texts for ID readers.
