objective: children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (adhd) do not process most information due to inattention and loss of the opportunity to save and retrieve information. therefore, these children experience memory impairment. although visual memory has been previously studied in children with adhd, iconic memory in these children has been less evaluated. we aimed to study the po...

introduction: neuro-plasticity is the neuronal system ability to modify and recover itself after the occurrence of impairment and injuries. following the abolition of a sensory modality, modifications will be applied to other modalities and their cortical function in a way that the processing of these modalities not only will happen in their own specific cortical area, but also in those areas t...

Background: Students with learning disabilities often encounter problems with their lessons due to the disorder in reading and writing and face to some challenging situation such as auditory and visual memory problem, sustaining attention, inhibiting impulses, motor coordination, auditory and visual perception and discrimination. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of...

The elderly with hearing loss have often experienced spatial deficits when only wearing aids. This case study aimed to investigate whether auditory training for could improve the ability of who wear Two older adults (males, aged 75 years and 78 years) were bilateral aids participated. They had symmetric sensorineural loss. A total 16 auditory-training sessions (40 minutes, twice per week) provi...

Purpose: Scapular dyskinesia is a change in position or movement of scapula, which is highly prevalent in athletes with overhead activities. In addition to biomechanical changes in shoulder complex, neurocognitive impairments can have a significant role in its creation. Thus, this study aimed to compare neurocognitive scores between athletes with and without scapular dyskinesia. Methods: I...

In order to extract information in a rich environment, we focus on different features that allow us to direct attention to whatever source is of interest. The cortical network deployed during spatial attention, especially in vision, is well characterized. For example, visuospatial attention engages a frontoparietal network including the frontal eye fields (FEFs), which modulate activity in visu...

Although there have been several previous investigations on the role of auditory training for the development of auditory processing skills, it still remains unknown whether children with auditory processing difficulties can get improved auditory skills after exposure to a multi-modal training experience comprising both visual and tactile stimuli. The present study, therefore, attempted to use ...
