Random Number Generation in Adults With Dyslexia: Further Evidence of Dyslexia-Related Executive Function Difficulties. [PDF]
DyslexiaABSTRACT Growing evidence indicates that people with dyslexia have executive function deficits. The current study used a random generation task as a novel way to investigate executive function in adults with dyslexia. Participants (total N = 54) were asked to produce an unpredictable sequence of 100 digits verbally.

Short Report: Intervention of Reading and Spelling Problems in Children With Co-Occurring Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Dyslexia. [PDF]
DyslexiaABSTRACT Despite the high co‐occurrence of dyslexia and attention‐deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), dyslexia is undertreated in children with ADHD. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether standard intervention for dyslexia is as effective for children with co‐occurring ADHD and dyslexia as for those with dyslexia only.

Fluency Is Good, but Comprehension Is Better: The Impact of Fluency and Comprehension on Mathematical Word Problem Solving. [PDF]
DyslexiaABSTRACT The impact of fluency and comprehension on mathematical word problem solving is explored using data on fifth‐graders who took part in the German National Educational Panel Study (NEPS). The Multiple Deficit Model (MDM) suggests that the impact of fluency and comprehension on mathematical word problem solving should be the same for students ...

Modeling dyslexia in neurotypical adults by combining neuroimaging and neuromodulation techniques: a hypothesis paper [PDF]
Frontiers in Human NeuroscienceDyslexia is a prevalent developmental disorder marked by deficits in literacy skills. Given that the core deficits of dyslexia are uniquely human, animal models have not been as useful in dyslexia research as they have been in other areas of research ...

The Genetic Origin of Uneven Cognitive Profiles in Heritable Neurodevelopmental Conditions and Individual Differences: Computational Investigations. [PDF]
Dev SciABSTRACT While the heterogeneity and co‐occurrence of heritable neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and dyslexia remain issues of debate, these conditions are nevertheless all characterised by uneven cognitive profiles exhibiting strengths and weaknesses.

Prevalence of undiagnosed dyslexia in African-American primary school children
npj Science of Learning, 2023 Dyslexia is among the most common neurodevelopmental disorders in children, yet despite its high prevalence all too frequently goes undiagnosed. Consequently dyslexic children all too often fail to receive effective reading interventions.

Early reading at first grade predicts adult reading at age 42 in typical and dyslexic readers
npj Science of Learning, 2023 Research indicates that the achievement gap in reading between typical and dyslexic readers is already evident in first grade and persists through adolescence. However, it is not known whether this reading gap persists into adult life.
