Are the brain mechanisms of reading acquisition similar across writing systems? And do
similar brain anomalies underlie reading difficulties in alphabetic and ideographic reading …

Multiple studies have shown that individuals with a reading disability (RD) demonstrate
deficits in posterior left-hemispheric brain regions during reading-related tasks. These …

Primary education is the incubator for learning academic skills that help children to become
a literate, communicative, and independent person. Over this learning period, nonlinear and …

In recent years, some progress has been made in the study of reading and reading disability

How does reading expertise change the visual system? Here, we explored whether the
visual system could develop dedicated perceptual mechanisms in early and intermediate …

Recent theories of developmental dyslexia explain reading deficits in terms of deficient
phonological awareness, attention, visual and auditory processing, or automaticity. Since …
