Behavioral and ERP evidence for amodal sluggish attentional shifting in developmental dyslexia

▶ Behavioral and electrophysiological evidence that reading disorders relate to sluggish attention shifting in both the visual and auditory modalities. ▶ Evidence for a link between sluggish attention shifting and degraded amodal perceptual integration of rapid stimulus sequences. ▶ Correlation of auditory and visual rapid sequential skills suggesting an amodal pool of resources necessary for phonological and decoding skills.
