  • Title: Hemispheric lateralisation for verbal analysis: do children with reading problems differ from controls?
    Author: Grogan S.
    Journal: Percept Mot Skills; 1986 Dec; 63(3):1265-6. PubMed ID: 3808900.
    Abstract:
    Specialisation for verbal-sequential analysis in 'dyslexics', poor readers and matched adequate readers was investigated. Groups did not differ on degree of right-ear advantage on the dichotic digits task, suggesting that the poor readers processed digits in the left hemisphere in a similar way to children who read normally. The results cast doubt on theories that 'dyslexia' is related to incomplete lateralisation for verbal analysis.
