Dyslexia: Regional differences in brain electrical activity by topographic mapping

Duffy, Frank H., Denckla, Martha B., Bartels, Peter H., Sandini, Giulio·1980·Annals of Neurology

Abstract

Electroencephalographic (EEG) and evoked potential data were recorded during behavioral testing from 8 dyslexic and 10 normal boys aged 9 to 11 years. Topographic mapping of their brain electrical activity revealed four discrete regions of difference between the two groups involving both hemispheres, left more than right. Aberrant dyslexic physiology was not restricted to a single locus but was found in much of the cortical region ordinarily involved in reading and speech. Prominent group differences were observed in the bifrontal area in addition to the more expected left temporal and left posterior quadrant regions. Although activation tests produced more prominent group difference, dyslexics differed from normal subjects at rest as well. EEG alpha activity was increased for the dyslexics, suggesting relative cortical inactivity in that group.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
