Aspects of social cognition in anorexia nervosa: affective and cognitive theory of mind.

22 May 2009 Although social functioning is clearly impaired in anorexia nervosa (AN), there has been limited empirical assessment of this domain in this illness. This study assesses social cognition in AN by examining performance on two 'theory of mind' (ToM) ...

Project DyAdd: Fatty acids and cognition in adults with dyslexia, ADHD, or both.

21 May 2009 Both attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and dyslexia are suggested to co-occur with altered fatty acid (FA) metabolism, but it is unknown how FAs are associated with the cognitive domains that characterize these disorders. In the ...

A comparison of brain activity evoked by single content and function words: an fMRI investigation of implicit word processing.

20 May 2009 Content and function words have different roles in language and differ greatly in their semantic content. Although previous research has suggested that these different roles may be mediated by different neural substrates, the neuroimaging literature ...

Space information is important for reading.

18 May 2009 Reading a text without spaces in an alphabetic language causes disruption at the levels of word identification and eye movement control. In the present experiment, we examined how word discriminability affects the pattern of eye movements when ...

Precision of position signals for letters.

17 May 2009 Accurate reading of words and text relies on reliable identification of letters in left-to-right order. Previous studies have shown that people often make letter-reversal errors when identifying strings of letters away from fixation. These errors ...

Children with dyslexia lack multiple specializations along the visual word-form (VWF) system.

12 May 2009 Developmental dyslexia has been associated with a dysfunction of a brain region in the left inferior occipitotemporal cortex, called the "visual word-form area" (VWFA). In adult normal readers, the VWFA is specialized for print processing and ...

Eye movements and attention in reading, scene perception, and visual search.

12 May 2009 Eye movements are now widely used to investigate cognitive processes during reading, scene perception, and visual search. In this article, research on the following topics is reviewed with respect to reading: (a) the perceptual span (or span of ...

Age-related differences in brain activity during extended continuous word recognition in children.

12 May 2009 To examine the development of verbal recognition memory in primary-school children, 36 healthy younger children (8-9 years old) and 36 healthy older children (11-12 years old) participated in an ERP study with an extended continuous recognition ...

Reading for meaning in dyslexic and young children: distinct neural pathways but common endpoints.

7 May 2009 Developmental dyslexia is a highly prevalent and specific disorder of reading acquisition characterised by impaired reading fluency and comprehension. We have previously identified fMRI- and ERP-based neural markers of impaired sentence reading in ...

Neurophysiology in preschool improves behavioral prediction of reading ability throughout primary school.

5 May 2009 BACKGROUND: More struggling readers could profit from additional help at the beginning of reading acquisition if dyslexia prediction were more successful. Currently, prediction is based only on behavioral assessment of early phonological processing ...
