Abstract

Dyslexia is associated with difficulty in mastering reading and writing, but also with poor performance in several motor tasks. Therefore, this study examined the effects of an intervention program involving sensorimotor and cognitive engagement on the reading performance and eye movements of children with dyslexia. Eleven dyslexic children (10.7 ± 1.7 years old) read texts displayed in an iPad, wearing an eye-tracking system. Total reading time, fixation, and saccades were obtained during reading. The children also performed manual coordination (9-hole peg) and agility (squared test) tests. After a 2-month enrollment in an intervention motor skill program, with 60-min sessions, twice a week, associated with cognitive challenge, the children performed the reading and motor tests again. Results showed that children enjoyed and engaged the program activities, and total reading time decreased, associated also to fixation duration decreasing. No difference was observed for the manual coordination and agility tests. These results suggest that an intervention program comprising a combination of sensory-motor and cognitive engagement of dyslexic children improves their reading performance and such improvement is related to eye movement changes.

感觉运动与认知参与训练对发展性阅读障碍患者阅读和眼动的影响。

阅读障碍与掌握阅读和写作的困难有关，但也与一些运动任务的表现不佳有关。因此，本研究考察了涉及感觉运动和认知参与的干预项目对阅读障碍儿童阅读表现和眼球运动的影响。11名阅读困难儿童（10.7±1.7岁）佩戴眼动追踪系统阅读iPad上显示的文本。在阅读过程中获得总阅读时间、注视和扫视。儿童还进行了手动协调（9孔钉）和敏捷性（平方测试）测试。孩子们参加了为期2个月的干预运动技能项目，每周两次，每次60分钟，与认知挑战有关，之后再次进行了阅读和运动测试。结果表明，儿童对节目活动的喜爱和参与程度有所降低，总阅读时间减少，且与注视时间减少有关。在手工协调性和敏捷性测试中没有观察到差异。这些结果表明，由感觉-运动和认知结合的干预方案可以改善失读症儿童的阅读表现，这种改善与眼动变化有关。

期刊介绍： Applied Neuropsychology: Child publishes clinical neuropsychological articles concerning assessment, brain functioning and neuroimaging, neuropsychological treatment, and rehabilitation in children. Full-length articles and brief communications are included. Case studies of child patients carefully assessing the nature, course, or treatment of clinical neuropsychological dysfunctions in the context of scientific literature, are suitable. Review manuscripts addressing critical issues are encouraged. Preference is given to papers of clinical relevance to others in the field. All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor-in-Chief, and, if found suitable for further considerations are peer reviewed by independent, anonymous expert referees.
