Zusammenfassung:	Several verbal and nonverbal tests and measures, including the General Classification Test (GCT), Mechanical Test (MECH), Arithmetic Test (ARI) , Clerical Test (CLER), Raven Progressive Matrices (RPM), age, education level, race, speaking English as a native or second language, modification of hand use, and measures of handedness and eyedness were used to differentiate between a group of recruits enrolled in a Navy remedial reading program (RR group) and a non-remedial comparison recruit group (C group). These tests and measures were also associated with reading achievement attained by the remedial recruits as measured by pre- and post-test performance on the comprehension subtest of the Gates-MacGinitie Reading Test.
