An adequate level of reading comprehension is a prerequisite for successful learning. Numerous studies have shown that without a solid foundation, there can be severe difficulties in later learning and that failure in the first years of schooling can determine attitudes to learning. In the present study, we present the…

This paper reviews the observations of the Jyväskylä Longitudinal Study of Dyslexia (JLD). The JLD is a prospective family risk study in which the development of children with familial risk for dyslexia (N = 108) due to parental dyslexia and controls without dyslexia risk (N = 92) were followed from birth to adulthood.…

Becoming a proficient reader requires substantial learning over many years. However, it is unknown how learning to read affects development of distributed visual representations across human ventral temporal cortex (VTC). Using fMRI and a data-driven, computational approach, we quantified the development of distributed…

Both structural and functional brain changes have been individually associated with developing cognitive processes such as reading. However, there is limited research about the combined influence of resting-state functional and structural magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI and sMRI) features in reading development…

Pre-reading language skills develop rapidly in early childhood and are related to brain structure and function in young children prior to formal education. However, the early neurobiological development that support these skills is not well understood and has not been assessed longitudinally using multiple imaging…

Reading is one of the most complex skills that we utilize daily, and it involves the early development and interaction of various lower-level subskills, including phonological processing and oral language. These subskills recruit brain structures, which begin to develop long before the skill manifests and exhibit rapid…

Reading acquisition is a prolonged learning process relying on language development starting in utero. Behavioral longitudinal studies reveal prospective associations between infant language abilities and preschool/kindergarten phonological development that relates to subsequent reading performance. While recent…

This article reviews our understanding of reading disorders in children and relates it to current proposals for their classification in DSM-5. There are two different, commonly occurring, forms of reading disorder in children which arise from different underlying language difficulties. Dyslexia (as defined in DSM-5)…

Reading is a high-order cognitive process that is unique in human beings. There is a prolonged developmental course and a wide range of proficiency levels associated with reading. In this review, I focus on brain changes underlying Chinese reading development in both typical readers and readers with reading disability.…

The present longitudinal retrospective study examined in a sample of 123 Greek-speaking children whether the raw score growth in a broad range of oral language and reading skills from Grade 1 to Grade 3 differs among children with persistent reading comprehension difficulties (pRCD; N = 49) identified in Grade 3, those…

Encouraging children to read frequently and helping them to develop their reading skills as effectively as possible can be a challenge for some primary schools. Often, institutions have to rely on external teaching assistants and parent volunteers to provide pupils with additional one-on-one support in order help them…

We review current knowledge about reading development and the origins of difficulties in learning to read. We distinguish between the processes involved in learning to decode print, and the processes involved in reading for meaning (reading comprehension). At a cognitive level, difficulties in learning to read appear…

Grade Level: Potential Impact on Reading Fluency and Literacy Skills Authors: ['Marina Ribeiro' 'Bárbara Luzia Covatti Malcorra' 'Diego Pintor' 'Natália Bezerra Mota'] Selecting an appropriate book is crucial for fostering reading habits in children. While children exhibit varying levels of complexity when generating…

Developmental dyslexia is a learning disability characterized by difficulties in word reading. While the prevalence in the general public is around 10-12%, an increased prevalence of 40-60% has been reported for children with a familial risk. Neural atypicalities in the reading network have been observed in children…

Significant challenges exist globally regarding literacy teaching and learning. To address these challenges, key features of how the brain works should be taken into account. First, perception is an active process based in detection of errors in hierarchical predictions of sensory data and action outcomes. Reading is a…

In contrast, mainstream approaches have led to impressive feats and commercially valuable AI systems. The approaches include deep learning and generative AI (e.g., large language models) and manually constructed symbolic modeling. However, manually constructed AIs tend to be brittle even in circumscribed domains.…

'Michail Kalaitzakis' 'Theodora Bachourou' 'Georgios Kaloutsakis' 'George D. Kymionis' 'Stelios M. Smirnakis' 'Ioannis M. Aslanides'] Dyslexia is a developmental learning disorder of single word reading accuracy and/or fluency, with compelling research directed towards understanding the contributions of the visual…

Despite the importance of reading skills in the everyday life of adults in the modern world, the reading research is dominated by the school context, reading acquisition in young children, and problems caused by developmental dyslexia, especially in English. We believe that the articles collected in our Topic are a…

Hardware-based startups risk having longer times-to-market, deterring investment in critical fields such as cleantech, medical devices, and automation. We interviewed 55 leaders at hardware startups, mapped their development timelines, and found prototyping to be the longest development step (median of 19 weeks per…
