Was not found relation between reading comprehension and the subtests of digits (p=0,229), letters (p=0,114), objects (p=0,713) and colors (p=0,845).  Conclusion: public school students between sixth and nineth grade have higher rapid automatized naming times and difficulties on reading comprehension, and those two variables do not have a statistical significance relationship.
