With the aim of investigating the possibility of a relationship between ear laterality and reading performance, ten dyslexic children were studied under different conditions of auditory feedback. It was found that oral reading was more rapid when feedback was directed mainly to the right ear instead of at equal intensity to both ears. The possible effect of amplifying high frequencies and attenuating low frequencies was also studied, but the results were not as clear. Consideration was given to theoretical interpretation similar to that which has been proposed for the well-established right ear advantage in normals.
