Abstract

This study aimed to test the efficacy of a newly developed computer-based game naming computerized executive functions (CEF) task on the reading ability of children suffering from dyslexia. Forty dyslexic school students from the fourth and fifth grades were randomized to one of the experimental and control groups. Subjects of the experimental group received 12 sessions of Computerized Executive Functions Training (CEFT), while subjects of the control group played a neutral computer game throughout the 12 sessions. All participants responded to the Reading and Dyslexia Test (NEMA) as the pre- and post-test measure. Results revealed a significant improvement in the reading ability of subjects of the experimental group compared to the control group. Subjects of the experimental group indicated a greater improvement in some components of the NEMA scale including word reading, word chains reading, picture naming, text comprehension, word comprehension and letter fluency relative to the control group. CEFT had no significant effect in modifying the category fluency, phoneme elimination and rhyming components of the NEMA scale. Applying CEFT improves the reading performance of children with dyslexia by enforcing their cognitive abilities like working memory, inhibition control and cognitive flexibility which are necessary for normal reading ability.

计算机化执行功能训练:对阅读障碍儿童阅读能力的影响。
本研究旨在测试新开发的电脑游戏 "命名电脑执行功能(CEF)任务 "对阅读障碍儿童阅读能力的影响。40名患有阅读障碍的四、五年级学生被随机分为实验组和对照组。实验组的受试者接受了 12 次计算机化执行功能训练(CEFT),而对照组的受试者则在 12 次训练中始终玩一款中立的计算机游戏。所有受试者都参加了阅读和读写障碍测试(NEMA),作为测试前和测试后的衡量标准。结果显示,与对照组相比,实验组受试者的阅读能力明显提高。与对照组相比,实验组受试者在 NEMA 量表的某些部分(包括单词阅读、单词链阅读、图片命名、文字理解、单词理解和字母流利度)有了更大的提高。CEFT对NEMA量表中的类别流利性、音素消除和押韵部分没有明显改善效果。应用 CEFT 可增强阅读障碍儿童的认知能力,如正常阅读能力所需的工作记忆、抑制控制和认知灵活性,从而提高他们的阅读能力。

期刊介绍: DYSLEXIA provides reviews and reports of research, assessment and intervention practice. In many fields of enquiry theoretical advances often occur in response to practical needs; and a central aim of the journal is to bring together researchers and practitioners in the field of dyslexia, so that each can learn from the other. Interesting developments, both theoretical and practical, are being reported in many different countries: DYSLEXIA is a forum in which a knowledge of these developments can be shared by readers in all parts of the world. The scope of the journal includes relevant aspects of Cognitive, Educational, Developmental and Clinical Psychology Child and Adult Special Education and Remedial Education Therapy and Counselling Neuroscience, Psychiatry and General Medicine The scope of the journal includes relevant aspects of: - Cognitive, Educational, Developmental and Clinical Psychology - Child and Adult Special Education and Remedial Education - Therapy and Counselling - Neuroscience, Psychiatry and General Medicine
