This study investigated the reading and reading-related skills of 15 French-speaking adults with dyslexia, whose performance
was compared with that of chronological-age controls (CA) and reading-level controls (RL). Experiment 1 assessed the efficiency
of their phonological reading-related skills (phonemic awareness, phonological short-term memory, and rapid automatic naming
(RAN)) and experiment 2 assessed the efficiency of their lexical and sublexical (or phonological) reading procedures (reading
aloud of pseudowords and irregular words of different lengths). Experiment 1 revealed that adults with dyslexia exhibited
lower phonological reading-related skills than CAs only, and were better than RL controls on the RAN. In experiment 2, as
compared with RL controls, only a deficit in the sublexical reading procedure was observed. The results of the second experiment
replicated observations from English-language studies but not those of the first experiment. Several hypotheses are discussed
to account for these results, including one related to the transparency of orthographic systems. 相似文献

The present study explores the relationship between basic auditory processing of sound rise time, frequency, duration and
intensity, phonological skills (onset-rime and tone awareness, sound blending, RAN, and phonological memory) and reading disability
in Chinese. A series of psychometric, literacy, phonological, auditory, and character processing tasks were given to 73 native
speakers of Mandarin with an average age of 9.7 years. Twenty-six children had developmental dyslexia, 29 were chronological
age-matched controls (CA controls) and 18 were reading-matched controls (RL controls). Chinese children with dyslexia were
significantly poorer than CA controls in almost all phonological tasks, in semantic radical search, and in phonological recoding
proficiency. Chinese children with dyslexia also showed significant impairments in most of the basic auditory processing tasks.
Regression analyses demonstrated that different auditory measures of rise time discrimination were the strongest predictors
of individual differences in Chinese character reading (1 Rise task) and phonological recoding (2 Rise task) respectively,
with frequency discrimination also important for nonsense syllable decoding. Our results support the hypothesis that accurate
perception of the amplitude envelope of speech is critical for phonological development and consequently reading acquisition
across languages. 相似文献

This study explores the contribution of cognitive processes to comprehension skills in adults who suffered from childhood developmental dyslexia (CD). The performance of adults with CD (ages 17 to 23), chronological age-matched (CA) adults, and reading level-matched (RL) children was compared on measures of phonological processing, naming speed, working memory (WM), general knowledge, vocabulary, and comprehension. The results showed that adults with CD scored lower on measures of phonological processing, naming speed, WM, general knowledge, and vocabulary when compared to CA readers but were comparable to RL children on the majority of process measures. Phonological processing, naming speed, vocabulary, general knowledge, and listening comprehension contributed independent variance to reading comprehension accuracy, whereas WM, intelligence, phonological processing, and listening comprehension contributed independent variance to comprehension fluency. Adults with CD scored lower than CA adults and higher than RL children on measures of lexical processing, WM, and listening comprehension when word recognition and intelligence were partialed from the analysis. In summary, constraints in phonological processing and naming speed mediate only some of the influence of high-order processes on reading comprehension. Furthermore, adults with CD experience difficulties in WM, listening comprehension, and vocabulary independently of their word recognition problems and intellectual ability. 相似文献

In the present study, conducted with French-speaking children, we examined the reliability (group study) and the prevalence
(multiple-case study) of dyslexics’ phonological deficits in reading and reading-related skills in comparison with Reading
Level (RL) controls. All dyslexics with no comorbidity problem schooled in a special institution for children with severe
reading deficits were included in the study (N = 15; Chronological Age [CA]: 111 ± 8 months; RL: 80 ± 3 months). For the group study, the 15 dyslexics were matched pairwise
on reading level, non-verbal IQ, and gender to 15 younger RL controls (CA: 85 ± 4 months). For the multiple-case study, the
RL control group included 86 average readers (CA: 83 ± 4 months; RL: 85 ± 5 months). To assess the relative efficiency of
the sublexical (or phonological) and lexical reading procedures, we relied on two comparisons: pseudowords vs. high-frequency
regular words (the comparison mainly used in languages with a shallow orthography); and pseudowords vs. high-frequency irregular
words (the comparison mainly used with English-speaking dyslexics), pseudowords and irregular words being either short or
long. The dyslexics’ skills in the domains supposed to explain their reading deficit were also examined: phonemic awareness,
phonological short-term memory and rapid naming. In the group study, the dyslexics lagged behind the RL controls only when
they were required to read long pseudowords. The results of the multiple-case study indicated that the prevalence of this
deficit was high (the accuracy scores of all but two of the 15 dyslexics being more than 1 SD below the RL control mean),
and that deficits in phonemic awareness were more prevalent (seven cases) than deficits in phonological memory (one case)
and in rapid naming (two cases). Three unexpected results were observed in the group study: the difference between regular
words and pseudowords (to the detriment of pseudowords) was not greater for the dyslexics; the difference between irregular
words and pseudowords (to the benefit of pseudowords) was more significant for the RL controls; and there were no significant
differences between the groups in reading-related skills. To explain these results, the severity of the dyslexics’ reading
deficit and the remediation they have benefited from must be taken into account. In addition, the fact that the outcomes of
the comparison between pseudoword vs. regular or irregular word reading were not the same will make it possible to understand
some discrepancies between studies carried out either in English or in a language with a shallower orthography (French, for
instance).

The rationale for the study was that if dyslexic and garden-variety poor readers differ in reading-related cognitive skills, there is justification for believing dyslexia to be a distinct entity. Subjects were 110 children aged 6 to 10 years, divided into groups of dyslexic poor readers varying in verbal IQ, garden-variety poor readers, and good readers. Findings suggest that there are valid grounds for believing that dyslexia is a separate entity from garden-variety poor reading, and that it is found among children at all verbal IQ levels. Poor phonological awareness and nonword reading, in relation to normal readers, were shared by dyslexic and garden-variety poor readers. Deficits unique to dyslexic poor readers were problems in both automatic visual recognition and phonological recoding of graphic stimuli. The study supports the phonological-core variable-difference model of Stanovich (1988) in that both dyslexic and garden-variety poor readers showed phonological processing deficits, but they were more extensive in dyslexics. 相似文献

Fifteen Portuguese children with dyslexia, aged 9–11 years, were compared with reading and chronological age controls with
respect to five indicators related to the phonological deficit hypothesis: the effects of lexicality, regularity, and length,
implicit and explicit phonological awareness, and rapid naming. The comparison between groups indicates that Portuguese children
with dyslexia have a phonological impairment which is revealed by a developmental deficit in implicit phonological awareness
and irregular word reading (where younger reading level controls performed better than dyslexics) and by a developmental delay
in decoding ability and explicit phonological awareness (where dyslexics matched reading level controls). These results are
discussed in relation to the idea that European Portuguese is written in an orthography of intermediate depth. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine whether children with dyslexia, that is, children whose reading levels were significantly lower than would be predicted by their IQ scores, constituted a distinctive group when compared with poor readers, that is, children whose reading scores were consistent with their IQ scores. The performance of children with dyslexia, poor readers, and normally achieving readers was compared on a variety of reading, spelling, phonological processing, language, and memory tasks. Although the children with dyslexia had significantly higher IQ scores than the poor readers, these two groups did not differ in their performance on reading, spelling, phonological processing, or most of the language and memory tasks. In all cases, the performance of both reading disabled groups was significantly below that of nondisabled readers. The findings were similar whether absolute difference or regression scores were used. Reading disabled children, whether or not their reading is significantly below the level predicted by their IQ scores, experience significant problems in phonological processing, short-term and working memory, and syntactic awareness. On the basis of these data, there does not seem to be a need to differentiate between individuals with dyslexia and poor readers. Both of these groups are reading disabled and have deficits in phonological processing, verbal memory, and syntactic awareness. 相似文献

The purpose of the present study was twofold: (a) to examine the extent to which Chinese dyslexic children experience deficits in phonological and orthographic processing skills and (b) to examine if Chinese dyslexia is associated with deficits in Planning, Attention, Simultaneous, and Successive (PASS) processing. A total of 27 Grade 4 children with dyslexia (DYS), 27 Grade 4 chronological age (CA) controls, and 27 Grade 2 reading age (RA) controls were tested on measures of phonological awareness, rapid naming, phonological memory, PASS, reading accuracy, and reading fluency. The results indicated that the DYS group performed significantly poorer than the CA and RA groups on both measures of phonological awareness and on a measure of orthographic processing but comparably to the RA group on a measure of rapid naming and both measures of phonological memory. In regard to the PASS processing skills, the DYS group performed worse than the CA controls on Successive and Simultaneous processing but comparably to the RA group on all PASS processing skills. Implications of these findings for early identification and intervention of reading difficulties are discussed. 相似文献

This study investigated whether children with dyslexia differed in their performance on reading, phonological, rapid naming,
motor, and cerebellar-related tasks and automaticity measures compared to reading age (RA)-matched and chronological age (CA)-matched
control groups. Participants were 51 children attending mainstream English elementary schools in Quebec. All participants
completed measures of IQ, word and nonword reading fluency, elision, nonword decoding, rapid naming, bead threading, peg moving,
toe tapping, postural stability, and muscle tone. Results from both group contrasts and analyses at the individual case level
did not provide support for claims of motor–cerebellar involvement in either typical or atypical reading acquisition. Results
were more consistent with a phonological core process account of both typical reading and reading difficulty. Phonological
deficits for children with dyslexia compared to RA-matched controls were, however, only evident in group contrasts. Findings
thus also have important implications for identifying at-risk readers among their same-aged peers. 相似文献

Three groups of children with dyslexia, with mean age 8, 13 and 17 years, together with three groups of normally achieving children matched for age and IQ with the dyslexic groups, undertook tests of sound categorization and phoneme deletion. The design allowed comparison not only across chronological age but also across reading age. The children with dyslexia performed significantly worse even than their reading age controls on both tasks. Indeed, overall performance of the 17 year old children with dyslexia was closest, but inferior, to that of the 8 year old controls. Since the sound categorization task was designed to minimize working memory load, the results extend previous findings on the phonological awareness deficits in dyslexia by dissociating the deficit from memory load and by showing that it persists at least into late adolescence. 相似文献

This study aimed at identifying important skills for reading comprehension in Chinese dyslexic children and their typically
developing counterparts matched on age (CA controls) or reading level (RL controls). The children were assessed on Chinese
reading comprehension, cognitive, and reading-related skills. Results showed that the dyslexic children performed significantly
less well than the CA controls but similarly to RL controls in most measures. Results of multiple regression analyses showed
that word-level reading-related skills like oral vocabulary and word semantics were found to be strong predictors of reading
comprehension among typically developing junior graders and dyslexic readers of senior grades, whereas morphosyntax, a text-level
skill, was most predictive for typically developing senior graders. It was concluded that discourse and morphosyntax skills
are particularly important for reading comprehension in the non-inflectional and topic-prominent Chinese system. 相似文献

This study evaluated the effect of sound-symbol association training on visual and phonological memory in children with a history of dyslexia. Pretests of phonological and visual memory, a sound-symbol training procedure, and phonological and visual memory posttests were administered to children with dyslexia, to children whose dyslexia had been compensated through remedial training, and to age- and reading level-matched comparison groups. Deficits in visual and phonological memory and memory for sound-symbol associations were demonstrated in the dyslexia group. For children with dyslexia and children whose dyslexia had been remediated, the sound-symbol training scores were significantly associated with word and pseudoword reading scores and were significantly lower than those of the comparison groups. Children with dyslexia and children whose dyslexia had been compensated showed significantly less facilitation of phonological memory following the training than did typical readers. Skilled readers showed some reduction in accuracy of visual memory following the training, which may be the result of interference of verbalization with a predominantly visual task. A parallel decrease was not observed in the children with dyslexia, possibly because these children did not use the verbal cues. Children with dyslexia and children whose dyslexia had been compensated seemed to have difficulty encoding the novel sounds in memory. As a result, they derived less phonological memory advantage and less visual memory interference from the training than did typical readers. Children in the compensated dyslexia group scored lower on sound-symbol training than their age peers. In other respects, the scores of these children were equivalent to those of the typically reading comparison groups. Children in the compensated dyslexia group exhibited higher phonological rehearsal, iconic memory, and associative memory scores than children in the dyslexia group. Implications for the remediation of dyslexia are discussed. 相似文献

Whereas many studies point to a positive relationship between phonological skills and reading in English, little is known about these relationships for children learning to read in a morphemic orthography such as Chinese. The aim of this study was to examine the relationships among reading ability, phonological, semantic and syntactic skills in Chinese. The participants were 196 grade 1 to grade 4 Chinese children in Hong Kong. A word recognition task in Chinese was developed and children who scored in the lowest quartile were classified as poor readers. The children were administered phonological tasks (tone and rhyming discrimination), semantic tasks (choosing similar words and sentences meanings), a syntactic task (oral cloze), and a working memory task. The results showed that word recognition was highly correlated with phonological skills and semantic processing, and was only moderately related to syntactic knowledge and working memory. Poor readers showed a significant lag in the development of these skills with the most significant problems at the phonological and semantic levels. Phonological skills are important to the acquisition of reading skills in both Chinese and English. 相似文献

This study investigated the status of phonological representations in French dyslexic children (DY) compared with reading
level- (RL) and chronological age-matched (CA) controls. We focused on the syllable’s role and on the impact of French linguistic
features. In Experiment 1, we assessed oral discrimination abilities of pairs of syllables that varied as a function of voicing,
mode or place of articulation, or syllable structure. Results suggest that DY children underperform controls with a ‘speed-accuracy’
deficit. However, DY children exhibit some similar processing than those highlighted in controls. As in CA and RL controls,
DY children have difficulties in processing two sounds that only differ in voicing, and preferentially process obstruent rather
than fricative sounds, and more efficiently process CV than CCV syllables. In Experiment 2, we used a modified version of
the Colé, Magnan, and Grainger's (Applied Psycholinguistics 20:507–532, 1999) paradigm. Results show that DY children underperform
CA controls but outperform RL controls. However, as in CA and RL controls, data reveal that DY children are able to use phonological
procedures influenced by initial syllable frequency. Thus, DY children process syllabically high-frequency syllables but phonemically
process low-frequency syllables. They also exhibit lexical and syllable frequency effects. Consequently, results provide evidence
that DY children performances can be accounted for by laborious phonological syllable-based procedures and also degraded phonological
representations. 相似文献

In addition to an intrinsic difficulty in reading and spelling, one of the defining characteristics of dyslexia is an enduring and pervasive difficulty in phonological coding, such that dyslexic readers find it particularly challenging to process and manipulate the constituent sounds of a language. Coexistent with this finding is the evidence that some dyslexic readers also demonstrate subtle sensory coding problems in the visual and auditory domains. Few theories have been proposed to unite these different findings within a coherent model of reading. Here the evidence for visual, auditory and phonological coding problems in dyslexia is briefly reviewed, and a hypothesis is proposed for how adequate early sensory coding may be intrinsic to phonological awareness and subsequent reading ability. In this hypothesis, a cortical network is assumed that incorporates the visual, auditory and phonological skills of reading. The visual sub‐component of the network is mediated by the dorsal visual pathway, which is responsible for the accurate spatial encoding of letters, words and text. The auditory component of the network in pre‐readers is intrinsic to the development of phonological sensitivity, and then grapheme‐phoneme assimilation as reading skills develop. In this hypothesis, some of the symptoms of dyslexia may result from subtle problems in the encoding of both visual and auditory information and their role in maintaining the synchronicity of the reading network. 相似文献

There is a consensus that dyslexia is on a continuum with normal reading skill and that dyslexics fall at the low end of the
normal range in phonological skills. However, there is still substantial variability in phonological skill among dyslexic
children. Recent studies have focused on the high end of the continuum of phonological skills in dyslexics, identifying a
“surface” dyslexic, or “delayed” profile in which phonological skills are not out of line with other aspects of word recognition.
The present study extended this work to a longitudinal context, and explored differences among subgroups of dyslexics on a
battery of component reading skills. Third grade dyslexics (n=72) were classified into two subgroups, phonological dyslexics and delayed dyslexics, based on comparisons to younger normal
readers at the same reading level (RL group). The children were tested at two points (in third and fourth grade). The results
revealed that the classification of dyslexics produced reliable, stable, and valid groups. About 82 percent of the children
remained in the same subgroup category when retested a year later. Phonological dyslexics were lower in phoneme awareness
and expressive language. Delayed dyslexics tended to be slower at processing printed letters and words but not at rapid automatic
naming of letters, and relied more heavily on phonological recoding in reading for meaning than did phonological dyslexics.
A subset of the delayed dyslexics with the traditional “surface dyslexic” pattern (relatively high pseudoword and low exception
word reading) was also identified. The surface subgroup resembled the RL group on most measures and was not very stable over
one year. The results are discussed in light of current models of dyslexia and recent subgrouping schemes, including the Double-Deficit
Hypothesis. 相似文献

This study examined whether high- and low-IQ poor readers differed in patterns of reading performance. Ten-year-old poor readers with IQ scores of 110 and higher showed difficulty in taking a phonological approach to reading, failing to show an advantage in reading high-frequency regular versus irregular words and showing impaired nonword reading accuracy for their reading age. However, poor readers with IQ scores of 90 and below showed a more phonological approach to reading, with better reading of regular than irregular words of both high and low frequency, and with nonword reading skills slower than, but as accurate as, those of reading-age controls. We concluded that the high-IQ poor readers experienced difficulty in taking a phonological approach to reading, whereas the low-IQ poor readers had much less marked phonological problems, supporting Stanovich's phonological-core variable-difference model. 相似文献

In a longitudinal study of the relation between preschool development and later reading abilities, children with dyslexic parents and/or older siblings were compared to children with no family incidence of dyslexia. Many children from dyslexic families developed reading problems by the end of the second grade, and these poor readers were characterized chiefly by weaker early syntactic and phonological skills and by less frequent exposure to books during their preschool years than the preschoolers who became normal readers. Some implications of the results for etiological theories of dyslexia are discussed. 相似文献

In seven experiments, we investigated whether compensated and uncompensated adults with dyslexia show different patterns of deficits in magnocellular visual processing and in language processing tasks. In four visual tasks, we failed to find evidence of magnocellular deficits in either group. However, both groups of adults with dyslexia showed deficits in component language skills, and the degree of reading impairment predicted the nature and extent of these deficits. Uncompensated readers showed deficits in orthographic and especially phonological coding and awareness and were slower on rapid naming. Compensated readers showed word and nonword performance below controls but better than the uncompensated readers. The compensated group was not significantly less accurate than controls on phonological awareness, nor significantly worse overall on rapid naming. 相似文献
