Visual Attentional Training Improves Reading Capabilities in Children with Dyslexia: An Eye Tracker Study During a Reading Task [PDF]
Brain Sciences, 2020 Dyslexia is a specific disorder in reading abilities. The aim of this study was to explore whether a short visual attentional training could improve reading capabilities in children with reading disorders by changing their oculomotor characteristics. Two

Magnocellular Based Visual Motion Training Improves Reading in Persian. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 AbstractThe visual magnocellular system is thought to play a crucial role in learning to read. Here therefore, we examined whether magnocellular based training could improve reading in children with visual reading problems. The participants were 24 male primary school students aged between 9–11 (Mean = 9.76, SD = 0.59) with specific reading difficulty.

PERFORMANCE DETERMINED INSTRUCTION FOR TRAINING IN REMEDIAL READING [PDF]
Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1969 A system called Performance Determined Instruction (PDI) is presented as a methodological tactic for training in remedial reading. The system incorporates aspects of binary logic, instrumental conditioning, and programmed instruction. Results suggest that PDI is a high‐precision instructional procedure effective in obtaining desired changes in reading ...

Increased resting-state functional connectivity of visual- and cognitive-control brain networks after training in children with reading difficulties [PDF]
NeuroImage: Clinical, 2015 The Reading Acceleration Program, a computerized reading-training program, increases activation in neural circuits related to reading. We examined the effect of the training on the functional connectivity between independent components related to visual ...

Plastic neural changes and reading improvement caused by audiovisual training in reading-impaired children [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2001 This study aimed at determining whether audiovisual training without linguistic material has a remediating effect on reading skills and central auditory processing in dyslexic children. It was found that this training resulted in plastic changes in the auditory cortex, indexed by enhanced electrophysiological mismatch negativity and faster reaction ...
