Dyslexia and Dysgraphia: More than Written Language Difficulties in Common.
Mather, David S.
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v36 n4 p307-17 Jul-Aug 2003
A dual-task paradigm involving concurrent finger tapping and line orientation judgment was used to investigate brain processing differences in 12 early adolescent good readers/poor spellers, poor readers/poor spellers, and controls. In the right-hand tapping condition, the good spelling group displayed significantly less tapping disruption than both poor spelling groups. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
