Abstract

The purpose of this study was to compare Fernald Multisensory and Practice-Repetition in improvement of reading disabilities in students of school. The research was conducted according to quasi-experimental method using pre-test, post-test and control group design. The sample, selected randomly, consisted of 39 students (18 male, 21 female) from grade level 3 with reading disability in Javanrod city in 1385-86 porbipant were divided into 3 groups (education via Fernald Multisensory method, education via Practice-Repetition and the control group). Afterwards, they were matched according to IQ, gender, parents' education parents and formal education. The MANCOVA results of the posttest indicated meaningful differences between the groups. The MANCOVA and Tukey tests showed that Fernald Multisensory method was more effective than the control group and Exercise-Repetition group in verbal reading (p<0.001), speed of verbal reading (p<0.001), comprehention (p<0.05). Word reading (p<0.001) and speed of word reading (p<0.001), the results showed that the Exercise-Repetition group also performed better in verbal reading (p<0.01) and word reading (p<0.001) than the control group.
