Direct linkVagge, Aldo; Cavanna, Margherita; Traverso, Carlo Enrico; Iester, Michele – Annals of Dyslexia, 2015
The aims of this study were to analyze the relationship between dyslexia and eye movements and to assess whether this method can be added to the workup of dyslexic patients. The sample was comprised of 11 children with a diagnosis of dyslexia and 11 normal between 8 and 13 years of age. All subjects underwent orthoptic evaluation, ophthalmological…

Obrzut, John E.; Mahoney, Emery B. – Brain and Cognition, 2011
Dichotic listening (DL) techniques have been used extensively as a non-invasive procedure to assess language lateralization among children with and without learning disabilities (LD), and with individuals who have other auditory system related brain disorders. Results of studies using DL have indicated that language is lateralized in children with…

Han, Zaizhu; Bi, Yanchao – Brain and Language, 2009
The oral spelling process for logographic languages such as Chinese is intrinsically different from alphabetic languages. In Chinese only a subset of orthographic components are pronounceable and their phonological identities (i.e., component names) do not always correspond to the sound of the whole characters. We show that such phonological…

Lockavitch, Joseph F., Jr. – Academic Therapy, 1983
Activities to help children develop the concept of right-left awareness are presented. Activities touch on lateral awareness (distinguishing between their right and left sides and labeling them) and directionality (using the language of left and right according to someone else's orientation). (CL)

Peer reviewedObrzut, John E.; Boliek, Carol A. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1986
The authors consider recent research on brain lateralization in learning disabled children that has used three different experimental paradigms, noting that these studies have advanced knowledge about factors that can affect performance on the tasks that measure lateralization, but they do not produce a conclusive picture of abnormal…

Lipson, Alice M. – Academic Therapy, 1984
The following aspects of left-handedness are discussed: etiology and associated learning and developmental disorders; right-brain dominance and how to detect it; adaptations to the physical learning environment; behavior patterns; and teaching techniques. (JW)

Peer reviewedDenckla, Martha Bridge; And Others – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1985
Most of 32 learning disabled children (seven to 14 years old) with neurological lateralization characteristics marked by right and left hemispheres had a normal CT (computerized tomography) scan. (CL)

Burnham, Jon A. – Academic Therapy, 1986
Middle and secondary school students who continue to display reversal problems despite intervention should be taught to compensate. Compensation can be based on the student's common error problems. (CL)

Traynelis-Yurek, Elaine – Academic Therapy, 1985
Five male learning disabled students (eight to 13 years old) learned more words using the nonpreferred hand in tactile processing to remediate reading than with the preferred hand. (CL)

Bannatyne, Alex – Academic Therapy Quarterly, 1972
Mirror-imaging of letter shapes and reversals of whole words when read or written are defined and explanations are given as to why children tend to make these mistakes. (KW)

The author, searching for possible neurological anomalies behind a learning disability, focuses on the theory that faulty lateralization is implicated in reading difficulties. (Author)

Attentional Bias and the Development of Cerebral Dominance in Normal and Learning Disabled Children.
Hynd, George W.; And Others – 1979
The magnitude of the dichotic right ear advantage was assessed in 48 normal and 48 learning disabled (LD) children (mean age 8.3 years). Ss were matched according to age, sex, and handedness. An analysis of results indicated a significant right ear advantage in both the normal and LD children, but revealed no developmental trend for either group.…
