En este trabajo se abordan cuestiones básicas relativas a la manipulación y retención de la información en la Memoria de Trabajo y su vinculación con la adquisición lectora desde la perspectiva de los modelos interactivos de procesamiento de la información. Se plantean cuatro experimentos aplicados a niños de nivel lector alto y bajo de primero, tercero y quinto de EGB, respectivamente. Los resultados indican que sólo existen diferencias significativas entre grupos de distinto nivel lector en aquellas tareas con mayor implicaión de componentes funcionales, mientras que las diferencias más importantes entre cursos se dan entre primero y tercero, tanto para componentes estructurales como funcionales.
