Abstract
⺠A meta-analysis of reading skills in children with Down syndrome is presented. ⺠We examine the reading profile of children with Down syndrome. ⺠A control group of typically developing children matched for level of word recognition is included. ⺠The groups had similar level of nonword reading skills. ⺠Vocabulary, but not phonological awareness is reliably predictors of reading skills.
