Catherine Antalek; Fiona Dixon; Elisabeth Herbert; Joanna Kolak – UK Department for Education, 2025
According to the SEND Code of Practice (DfE, 2015), cognition and learning difficulties encompass a wide range of needs, including general and specific learning difficulties. These difficulties affect various areas of learning including literacy, numeracy, and the acquisition of subject-specific knowledge and skills and may be linked to underlying…

Procedural learning difficulties are commonly reported in children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD), yet the neural basis of this impairment remains unclear. This study addressed this gap by examining the correlation between cortical oscillatory activity and procedural learning of a sequence of finger movements in children with and…

The Developmental Synaptopathies Consortium is a multisite natural history network studying rare, neurogenetic syndromes associated with synaptic dysfunction and developmental delays. One aim of the Consortium is clinical trial readiness, including identifying clinical concepts and validating their measurement. We evaluated the scope and…

Schott, Nadja – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2023
Research has shown that nonright-handedness in children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) is associated with poorer motor and cognitive performance. This study investigated the influence of degree and direction of handedness on performance using the Home Handedness Questionnaire, the Hitthe-Dot test, the Movement Assessment Battery…

Lauren A. Kalisch; Katherine A. Lawrence; Jessie Baud; Megan Spencer-Smith; Alexandra Ure – Review Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
This review examined the therapeutic support literature for children with autism and/or an intellectual disability who have experienced interpersonal trauma. We captured studies that implemented a therapeutic support with this population and synthesised articles that made clinical practice recommendations. Fifty-two relevant articles were…

Deniz, Fatmana Kara – Intervention in School and Clinic, 2023
Students with learning disabilities (LD) often leave school without the necessary cognitive autonomy skills to independently navigate adulthood and meet the life challenges of the 21st century. Acquiring and maintaining cognitive autonomy skills (i.e., decision-making, voicing an opinion, evaluating the consequences of decisions, self-assessing…

Impaired numerosity perception in developmental dyscalculia (low "number acuity") has been interpreted as evidence of reduced representational precision in the neurocognitive system supporting non-symbolic number sense. However, recent studies suggest that poor numerosity judgments might stem from stronger interference from non-numerical…

Ren, Xiaoyu; Li, Jie; Liu, Jinqiu; Liu, Duo; Zhao, Jing – Annals of Dyslexia, 2023
Within the framework of the theory of visual attention (TVA), the visual attention span (VAS) deficit among individuals with developmental dyslexia has been ascribed to the problems entailed by bottom-up (BotU) and top-down (TopD) attentional processes. The former involves two VAS subcomponents: the visual short-term memory storage and perceptual…

Linnenbank, M.; Feldmann, R.; Schulte-Körne, G.; Beimdiek, S.; Strittmatter, E. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
The processing speed index (PSI) of the Wechsler intelligence scale for children (WISC-IV) has been found to predict a child's level of academic functioning. The consistently reported PSI weakness in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) therefore warrants special assistance and attempts at compensation for the disadvantages associated with…

Hannah Witherstone – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) impacts various aspects of children's language abilities, including the processing of inflectional morphology. Prior research suggests that children with DLD exhibit deficits in processing speed and sensitivity to grammatical inflections, yet the relationship between these deficits remains unclear.…

Watkins, Marley W.; Canivez, Gary L. – School Psychology Review, 2022
It is often assumed that children with learning disabilities (LD) exhibit unique profiles of ability scores that reflect idiosyncratic cognitive strengths and weaknesses. Interpretation of cognitive ability profiles initially focused on visual inspection of subtest scores followed by statistical comparisons to identify significant cognitive…

Casey L. Roark; Vishal Thakkar; Bharath Chandrasekaran; Tracy M. Centanni – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: Developmental dyslexia is proposed to involve selective procedural memory deficits with intact declarative memory. Recent research in the domain of category learning has demonstrated that adults with dyslexia have selective deficits in Information-Integration (II) category learning that is proposed to rely on procedural learning…

Chen Cheng; Jiuqing Tang; Xiao Liang; Zhengjun Wang; Jay G. Rueckl; Jingjing Zhao – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2024
It has been widely accepted that developmental dyslexia (DD) exhibits deficits in reading and spelling. However, the role of phonology and semantics in reading and spelling in dyslexia has not been systematically investigated. In Experiment 1, 45 Chinese children with DD and 43 age-matched controls read two tests with Chinese characters. One test…

In the realm of logographic writing systems, such as Chinese characters, orthographic transparency fundamentally differs from alphabetic languages, posing unique challenges for individuals with developmental dyslexia (DD). This study employed event-related potentials (ERPs) and a masked priming paradigm to investigate how Chinese children with DD…
