Visual processing of multiple elements in the dyslexic brain: evidence for a superior parietal dysfunction

The visual attention (VA) span deficit hypothesis of developmental dyslexia posits that impaired multiple element processing can be responsible for poor reading outcomes. In VA span impaired dyslexic children, poor performance on letter report tasks is associated with reduced parietal activations fo...
