S ummary . Four experiments were carried out to examine the different recall strategies employed in a diagnostic test of visual sequential memory (VSM). Briefly the results were as follows: Experiment 1 indicated that competent readers tend to use a verbal labelling strategy in the recall of visual stimuli, rather than visual memory per se. Experiment 2 suggested that the retention of the visual stimuli could be improved by the adoption of a verbal labelling strategy. Experiment 3 suggested that when verbal labelling was suppressed the performance of competent readers on the VSM task deteriorated to a level similar to that of poor readers. Experiment 4 suggested that if retarded readers were instructed to use a verbal labelling strategy their retention of visual symbols improved significantly. Taken together, the principal implication from these results is that good and poor readers may differ not with respect to visual memory but their differential ability to employ a verbal labelling strategy in the retention of visual stimuli.
