To account for these difficulties, the author presents an original hypothesis, proposing that dyslexia is related to a working memory inefficiency, affecting in particular the subject's phonological skills and executive functions. The results of four experimental protocols, assessing dyslexic children's working memory and their ability to interpret scalar implicatures, negative sentences and pronominal expressions, are presented and discussed in this volume. Consistent with the hypothesis outlined in this book, the results of the four studies show that dyslexics underperformed in comparison to age-matched controls and even to younger children in tasks requiring good phonological and processing abilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Maurizio Gotti,Maria Vender\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3034320647\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783034320641\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic P\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/24\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 356\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.80w x 0.70d","brand":"Maurizio Gotti","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440276123903,"sku":"9783034320641","price":111.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_394683f9-d982-434d-9fa2-c67a6877bcea.jpg?v=1777181361","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/disentangling-dyslexia-maurizio-gotti-9783034320641","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
