Electrophysiological Correlates of Dyslexic Subtypes.

Flynn, Jane M.; And Others

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v25 n2 p133-41 Feb 1992

The construct validity of Boder's typology of dyslexia was investigated using quantified electroencephalography with 39 children (ages 7-11) during a reading task and at rest. Results supported beta frequency differences in anticipated regions by dyslexia subtype during the reading task. However, the direction of difference hypothesis was not supported. (Author/DB)
