The cognitive causes as well as the neurological and genetic basis of developmental
dyslexia, a complex disorder of written language acquisition, are intensely discussed with …

The visual attention span (VAS) deficit hypothesis in developmental dyslexia posits that a
subset of dyslexic individuals shows a multielement parallel processing deficit due to …

Figure 1| The visual attention span task. Variations on the visual attention span task using
alpha‑numeric stimuli (parts aand b) and dots (part c) are shown. Compared with 10‑year …

There is an ongoing debate whether an impairment of visual attentional functions constitutes
an additional or even an isolated deficit of developmental dyslexia (DD). Especially …

People with developmental dyslexia (DD) have been shown to be impaired in tasks that
require the processing of multiple visual elements in parallel. It has been suggested that this …

Despite the large number of studies conducted on developmental dyslexia, the cause (s) of
the disorder still remain (s) unclear. Researchers in this field still struggle to understand the …

Although the dominant approach posits that developmental dyslexia arises from deficits in
systems that are exclusively linguistic in nature (ie, phonological deficit theory), dyslexics …

Although the dominant view posits that developmental dyslexia (DD) arises from a deficit in
phonological processing, emerging evidence suggest that DD could result from a more …

We examine whether attention deficits underlie developmental dyslexia, or certain types of
dyslexia, by presenting double dissociations between the two. We took into account the …

Visual processing deficits have been widely reported in developmental dyslexia however
the locus of cognitive dysfunction remains unclear. Here, we examined the neural correlates …
