The impact of sleep duration and subject intelligence on declarative and motor memory performance: how much is enough?

30 Aug 2009 Recent findings clearly demonstrate that daytime naps impart substantial memory benefits compared with equivalent periods of wakefulness. Using a declarative paired associates task and a procedural motor sequence task, this study examined the effect ... Read more...

Rapid automatized naming, phonology and dyslexia in Polish children.

30 Aug 2009 BACKGROUND: Many studies have showed that children with reading difficulties have deficits in both rapid automatized naming (RAN) and phonological skills (PS). The double-deficit hypothesis suggests that phonological and naming-speed deficits are ... Read more...

Categorical speech perception deficits distinguish language and reading impairments in children.

30 Aug 2009 We examined categorical speech perception in school-age children with developmental dyslexia or Specific Language Impairment (SLI), compared to age-matched and younger controls. Stimuli consisted of synthetic speech tokens in which place of ... Read more...
