Research has shown that children with dyslexia and children with a low socioeconomic status (SES) fall behind in terms of literacy acquisition, but a question remains regarding the cumulative effect of dyslexia and SES on linguistic, cognitive and reading skills. To examine the impact of cognition and environment on literacy development, we returned to the data set of 1,441 elementary school children...
Children in bilingual societies often simultaneously acquire reading skills in distinct writing systems that vary in consistency of sound–letter mapping or orthographic depth. To investigate its effect on cortical reading networks in children, we performed functional imaging on 34 simultaneous Hindi–English biliterate children as they read word and nonword stimuli. In contrast to Hindi which is consistent...
What neural mechanisms underlie language and reading acquisition? Slow rhythmic modulations in the linguistic stream (below 8Hz) mark syllable and word boundaries in the continuous linguistic stream, potentially helping children master the words and structures of their language. Converging evidence across language and reading research suggests that children's sensitivity to these slow rhythmic modulations...
