Visual control in children with developmental dyslexia.
PURPOSE To assess binocular control in children with dyslexia. METHODS Cross-sectional study with 26 children who were submitted to a set of ophthalmologic and visual tests.

CONCLUSION The results support the hypothesis that developmental dyslexia might present...
متن کاملChildren with developmental dyslexia show a left visual “minineglect”
We investigated the performance of children with developmental dyslexia on a visual line bisection task. Dyslexic children did not show the overestimation of the left visual field (pseudoneglect) characteristic of normal adult vision. These results suggest that children with developmental dyslexia present selective deficits in visual attention, probably involving neural structures located in th...
متن کاملStatic postural control in children with developmental dyslexia.
The present investigation tries to better understand potential association and causal relationship between phonological and postural impairment due to developmental dyslexia. The study included 50 boys with developmental dyslexia and selected on the basis of their overall reading difficulties, and 42 control boys. Body sway during a quite standing posture eye open and eye closed on a force plat...
متن کاملStrategic Control in Developmental Dyslexia
Two types of developmental dyslexia are commonly distinguished. Children suffering from one type (e.g. surface dyslexia) read slowly and typically sound out the words during reading and children with the other type (e.g. phonological dyslexia) readat a normal rate but make many wordsubstitutions. Several authors (e.g. Castles & Coltheart, 1993) have proposed that the existence of the two types ...
متن کاملVisual-spatial attention in developmental dyslexia.
Orienting and focusing of visual attention are two processes strictly involved in reading. They were studied in a group of dyslexic children and normal readers. Shifting of attention by both peripheral and central visual cues was studied by means of the covert orienting paradigm. Focusing, consisting in the ability to control the size of the attentional focus, was investigated using simple reac...
