This chapter investigates the issue of whether dyslexics are eventually capable of automatic
word processing. Automatic processing is the final stage in isolated word reading. However …

Abstract Dyslexic children (n= 21, mean age= 10.2 years) were compared with normal
readers of the same age, normal readers of the same reading-age, and poor readers of the …

This study examined whether the characteristic reading speed impairment of German
dyslexic children results from a general skill-automatization deficit sensu Nicolson and …

The present study assessed reading difficulties and cognitive impairments of German-
speaking dyslexic children at grade levels 2, 3, and 4. It was found that German dyslexic …

One implication of the double-deficit hypothesis for dyslexia is that there should be subtypes
of dyslexic readers that exhibit rapid naming deficits with or without concomitant …

Methods used in subtyping developmental dyslexics and based on reading-level matched
children statistics (mean and standard deviation) define two main categories: phonological …

This paper reviews a body of prominent theoriesof automaticity in developmental dyslexia.
Thefirst part of the review considers therelationship between dyslexia and rapidautomatic …

In a longitudinal study, the development of phonological processing abilities was studied in
19 dyslexic, 17 weak, and 19 normal readers learning to read in Dutch. Among other …

Background The aim of this study was to investigate brain responses triggered by different
wordclasses in dyslexic and control children. The majority of dyslexic children have …

Abstract Background and Aim: Several studies have demonstrated deficits in rapid naming
in dyslexic readers; however the extent of deficit is different in various orthographies. This …
