Working memory training in students with dyslexia: Additional effects to reading and spelling remediation not likely
Background
Poor decoding and spelling (literacy) skills have been associated with weak working memory. Aims. The aim of this study was to elucidate the contribution of working memory to literacy progress in students with dyslexia. It has been suggested that working memory can be enhanced by training, which in turn may have a positive effect on reading and spelling abilities (e.g., Peijnenborg et al., 2023).
Methods and Procedures
Participants consisted of a specific group of children with dyslexia and weak working memory skills (n = 62). The effect of Cogmed training on decoding and spelling progress during remediation was investigated using a randomized controlled trial with three research groups (experimental: Cogmed training; active control: fixed computerized training; passive control group).
Outcomes and results
Findings revealed that the Cogmed training enhanced working memory to a rather small extent and that no effects of the Cogmed training on literacy progress occurred over and above the reading and spelling remediation program.
Conclusions and implications
Most likely, Cogmed training does not contribute to literacy development in children with dyslexia. The null results are important information for teachers of this specific group of students, albeit inevitably small samples in intervention studies applied to niche populations increase the risk of type-II errors. Therefore, replication studies are needed.
期刊介绍:
Research In Developmental Disabilities is aimed at publishing original research of an interdisciplinary nature that has a direct bearing on the remediation of problems associated with developmental disabilities. Manuscripts will be solicited throughout the world. Articles will be primarily empirical studies, although an occasional position paper or review will be accepted. The aim of the journal will be to publish articles on all aspects of research with the developmentally disabled, with any methodologically sound approach being acceptable.
