Direct linkMalstadt, Nadine; Hasselhorn, Marcus; Lehmann, Martin – Dyslexia, 2012
This study examined supraspan free recall in children with and without spelling impairment. A repeated free recall task involving overt rehearsal and three computer-based adaptive working memory tasks were administered to 54 eight-year-old children. Children without spelling impairments tended to recall more items than did those children with…

O'Brien, Beth A.; Wolf, Maryanne; Lovett, Maureen W. – Dyslexia, 2012
Long-standing issues with the conceptualization, identification and subtyping of developmental dyslexia persist. This study takes an alternative approach to examine the heterogeneity of developmental dyslexia using taxometric classification techniques. These methods were used with a large sample of 671 children ages 6-8 who were diagnosed with…

Rietz, Chantal Sabrina; Hasselhorn, Marcus; Labuhn, Andju Sara – Dyslexia, 2012
Children with literacy difficulties often suffer from a variety of co-occurring externalizing and internalizing difficulties, as well as comorbid ADHD. Therefore, these externalizing and internalizing problems might be more related to comorbid ADHD, rather than being a correlate of literacy difficulties per se. In the present study, we…

Torppa, Minna; Eklund, Kenneth; van Bergen, Elsje; Lyytinen, Heikki – Dyslexia, 2011
This family-risk (FR) study examined whether the literacy skills of parents with dyslexia are predictive of the literacy skills of their offspring. We report data from 31 child-parent dyads where both had dyslexia (FR-D) and 68 dyads where the child did not have dyslexia (FR-ND). Findings supported the differences in liability of FR children with…

van Otterloo, Sandra G.; van der Leij, Aryan; Henrichs, Lotte F. – Dyslexia, 2009
Dutch children at higher familial risk of reading disability received a home-based intervention programme before formal reading instruction started to investigate whether this would reduce the risk of dyslexia. The experimental group (n = 23) received a specific training in phoneme awareness and letter knowledge. A control group (n = 25) received…

Thomson, Brenda; Crewther, David P.; Crewther, Sheila G. – Dyslexia, 2006
Pseudoword (non-word) reading tasks are a commonly used measure of phonological processing across diverse fields of reading research. However, whether pseudoword reading gives any more information about phonological processing in young learner readers than does the reading of real words has seldom been considered. Here we show that pseudoword and…
