Atypical lateralization of phonological working memory in developmental dyslexia
Developmental dyslexia is a neurological condition characterized by unexpected low reading performance in people with normal intelligence and typical schooling. One prominent theory posits that dyslexic children fail to establish left-hemispheric dominance of visual representations and visual-phonological/meaning integration of printed words and thus exhibit an atypical lateralization of lexica...
متن کاملWorking Memory in Portuguese Children With Developmental Dyslexia.
A Portuguese sample of 50 children with developmental dyslexia (DD) and 50 typical readers (TR) who were matched for age (8-12 years old) were tested on measures of working memory. Relative to the TR, the children with DD performed significantly worse on phonological loop (PL) and central executive (CE) tasks; however, they exhibited no impairments on visuospatial sketchpad (VSSP) tasks. After ...
متن کاملWorking Memory and Dyslexia
Recent research has demonstrated that dyslexic children suffer impairments in both phonological skills and in working memory performance. In principle either a phonological deficit or a working memory deficit could underlie both sets of symptoms. This issue was addressed via a series of experiments designed to explore the relationships between dyslexia, age, phonological performance and working...
متن کاملMemory functioning in developmental dyslexia: an analysis using two clinical memory measures.
The goals of this project were threefold: to determine the nature of the memory deficit in children/adolescents with dyslexia, to utilize clinical memory measures in this endeavor, and to determine the extent to which semantic short-term memory (STM) is related to basic reading performance. Two studies were conducted using different samples, one incorporating the Wide Range Assessment of Memory...
