Cognitive Analysis of Dyslexia

  • Philip H.K. Seymour

Research output: Book/ReportBook

Abstract

Developmental dyslexia is a disorder which affects the acquisition of basic reading and spelling skills in childhood. Originally published in 1986 and reissued here with a new preface, adopting a cognitive approach to the problem, the author bases his discussion on the assumption that the mental system underlying reading competence can be represented as a set of information processors and that these components can be investigated by an application of the experimental methods of cognitive psychology. He presents a particular model of the cognitive system underlying reading competence and describes the practicalities of setting up an appropriate experimental procedure on a microprocessor.
