This paper gives an overview of the literature on the visuo-perceptual and visuo-attentional
deficits of dyslexic children. The hypothesis that visuo-attentional problems cooccur with …

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 …

Prior research on developmental dyslexia using Stroop tasks with young participants has
