Abstract
Dyslexic children have impairments in working memory and manual dexterity. Studies have shown that when cognitive development has deficits, motor development is often impaired, indicating a strong interconnection between both domains, and the possibility of interference with each other's proper functioning. Thus, a new literature review is necessary to understand which components of working memory and manual dexterity are affected in dyslexic children and the possible relationship between them. This review aimed to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to analyze both skills in dyslexic children. The protocol was carried out according to the criteria established by PRISMA being registered at PROSPERO under number CRD 42021238901. Six literature databases were searched to locate studies published between 2001 and 2021: EMBASE, ERIC, ISI Web of Science, PubMed, PsycINFO, and Scopus. 21 studies met the inclusion criteria. The findings suggest that dyslexic children have significantly poorer visuospatial and verbal working memory with more impairments in the phonological loop. No significant differences were found in manual dexterity.
有阅读障碍的儿童在工作记忆和手的灵活性上有缺陷。研究表明,当认知发展出现缺陷时,运动发展往往会受到损害,这表明两个领域之间存在很强的相互联系,并且可能相互干扰对方的正常功能。因此,有必要进行新的文献综述,以了解工作记忆和手灵巧的哪些成分在阅读困难儿童中受到影响,以及它们之间可能的关系。本综述旨在进行系统回顾和荟萃分析,以分析阅读困难儿童的这两项技能。该协议是根据PRISMA制定的标准执行的,该标准在PROSPERO注册,编号为CRD 42021238901。检索了2001年至2021年间发表的6个文献数据库:EMBASE、ERIC、ISI Web of Science、PubMed、PsycINFO和Scopus,其中21项研究符合纳入标准。研究结果表明,诵读困难儿童的视觉空间和语言工作记忆明显较差,语音回路受损较多。手工灵巧性无显著差异。
期刊介绍:
Devoted to exploring relationships between brain and behavior across the life span, Developmental Neuropsychology publishes scholarly papers on the appearance and development of behavioral functions, such as language, perception, and social, motivational and cognitive processes as they relate to brain functions and structures. Appropriate subjects include studies of changes in cognitive function—brain structure relationships across a time period, early cognitive behaviors in normal and brain-damaged children, plasticity and recovery of function after early brain damage, the development of complex cognitive and motor skills, and specific and nonspecific disturbances, such as learning disabilities, mental retardation, schizophrenia, stuttering, and developmental aphasia. In the gerontologic areas, relevant subjects include neuropsychological analyses of normal age-related changes in brain and behavioral functions, such as sensory, motor, cognitive, and adaptive abilities; studies of age-related diseases of the nervous system; and recovery of function in later life.
Empirical studies, research reviews, case reports, critical commentaries, and book reviews are featured in each issue. By publishing both basic and clinical studies of the developing and aging brain, the journal encourages additional scholarly work that advances understanding of the field of lifespan developmental neuropsychology.
