Details In this research, we tried to reveal that the reading abilities among VLBW children were associated with attention function. We examined the eye movements during reading words and non-words.
VLBW children had more numbers of fixations than NBW children during reading short words (4 letters) and non-words. But while reading long words (7 ~ 10 letters), there were no significant differences between groups.
