Direct linkRen, 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…

The Relationship between Paired Associate Learning and Chinese Word Reading in Kindergarten Children
Liu, Catrina; Chung, Kevin Kien Hoa; Wang, Li-Chih; Liu, Duo – Journal of Research in Reading, 2021
Background: Research has shown that paired associate learning (PAL) plays an important role in children's word reading across different languages. However, little is known about the construct of PAL and its relationship with word reading in Chinese children. Methods: A total of 204 second-year kindergarten children from Mainland China were…

Liu, Duo; Chen, Xi – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2020
The present study explored the mediating effect of word detection on the relationship between visual-spatial attention and reading comprehension in Chinese. The participants included 287 Hong Kong Chinese children (167 third graders, 84 girls, "mean age" = 8.73, SD = 0.49, and 120 fourth graders, 45 girls, "mean age" = 9.93, SD…

Wang, Li-Chih; Liu, Duo; Xu, Zhengye – Annals of Dyslexia, 2019
This study aimed to examine the effects of temporal processing training on the reading abilities of Chinese children with dyslexia. In total, 69 Chinese children with dyslexia in grades three through six were recruited in Taiwan. The children were divided into the following three equal groups: (1) auditory temporal processing training group, (2)…

Liu, Sisi; Liu, Duo – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2020
This study examined whether visual-spatial attention could predict Chinese reading achievement longitudinally beyond some well-established reading precursors. A total of 257 second- and third-grade Hong Kong Chinese-speaking children participated in the study. Visual-spatial attention was measured by visual search tasks, which assessed the skills…

Liu, Sisi; Wang, Li-Chih; Liu, Duo – Journal of Research in Reading, 2019
Background: There is emerging evidence that individuals with developmental dyslexia show deficits in visual-spatial attention. This study focused on visual searches and examined whether visual search deficits would be found in Chinese children with dyslexia. More importantly, we examined the associations between dyslexia and distinct types of…

Xu, Zhengye; Liu, Duo; Joshi, R. Malatesha – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2020
In the present study, 144 second- and 150 fourth-grade Chinese students were recruited to complete a Chinese character learning task to explore the specific contributions of sensory-motor components (i.e., visual, motor, and haptic systems) of handwriting to Chinese character learning. After matching for age, nonverbal IQ, and a series of…

Liu, Duo; Chen, Xi; Wang, Ying – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2016
The present study investigated the associations of visual-spatial attention with word reading fluency and spelling in 92 third grade Hong Kong Chinese children. Word reading fluency was measured with a timed reading task whereas spelling was measured with a dictation task. Results showed that visual-spatial attention was a unique predictor of…

Liu, Duo; Chen, Xi; Chung, Kevin K. H. – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2015
This study examined the relation between the performance in a visual search task and reading ability in 92 third-grade Hong Kong Chinese children. The visual search task, which is considered a measure of visual-spatial attention, accounted for unique variance in Chinese character reading after controlling for age, nonverbal intelligence,…
