Children with developmental dyslexia show a left visual “minineglect”

We investigated the performance of children with developmental dyslexia on a visual line bisection task. Dyslexic children did not show the overestimation of the left visual field (pseudoneglect) characteristic of normal adult vision. These results suggest that children with developmental dyslexia present selective deficits in visual attention, probably involving neural structures located in the right posterior parietal cortex.
