Purpose	predict reading abilities

Rapid automatized naming (RAN) is a task that measures how quickly individuals can name aloud objects, pictures, colors, or symbols (letters or digits). Variations in rapid automatized naming time in children provide a strong predictor of their later ability to read, and is independent from other predictors such as phonological awareness, verbal IQ, and existing reading skills.^[1] Importantly, rapid automatized naming of pictures and letters can predict later reading abilities for pre-literate children.^[2]
