Decreased sensitivity to phonemic mismatch in spoken word processing in adult developmental dyslexia.

Spoken word processing and the effect of phonemic mismatch in aphasia

Phonological and visual processing deficits can dissociate in developmental dyslexia: Evidence from two case studies

3 Abstract The present study describes two French teenagers with developmental reading and writing impairments whose performance was compared to that of chronological age and reading-age matched non-dyslexic participants. Laurent conforms to the pattern of phonological dyslexia: he exhibits a poor performance in pseudo-word reading and spelling, produces phonologically inaccurate misspellings b...

Semantic processing survey of spoken and written words in adolescents with cerebral palsy: Evidence from PALPA word-picture matching test

Objective: The present study aimed to assess and compare semantic processing of spoken and written words in adolescents with cerebral palsy and healthy adolescents. Method: The present study is quantitative in terms of type and experimental in terms of method. Examination Group consisted 30 adolescents with cerebral palsy aged 10 to 15 years were selected by convenience sampling method. All of ...

Cross-linguistic Analysis of Developmental Dyslexia─ Does Phonology Matter in Learning to Read Chinese?

Phonological processing deficit has been ascertained to be the core cognitive deficit of developmental dyslexia—in alphabetic languages at least. Measures of phonological processing typically include three components: phonemic awareness, phonological working memory, and rapid automatic naming. Among the three tasks, phonemic awareness was the most powerful predictor of reading abilities. Becaus...

Visual naming deficits in dyslexia: An ERP investigation of different processing domains.

Naming speed deficits are well documented in developmental dyslexia, expressed by slower naming times and more errors in response to familiar items. Here we used event-related potentials (ERPs) to examine at what processing level the deficits in dyslexia emerge during a discrete-naming task. Dyslexic and skilled adult control readers performed a primed object-naming task, in which the relations...
