Abstract
Various factors have been shown to influence the reading comprehension of reading disordered individuals including altered auditory feedback. This study investigated the influence of frequency altered feedback (FAF) on the reading comprehension and decoding accuracy of reading disordered and normal reading adults. Participants consisted of 30 college students with normal and disordered reading abilities. Percentage accuracy data was collected for both comprehension and decoding. Results indicate that FAF has an enhancing effect on the oral reading comprehension of reading disordered adults whereas it has a detrimental effect on the reading comprehension of normal reading adults. FAF had no effect on decoding accuracy for either group.
