Peer reviewedHolt-Ochsner, Liana K.; Manis, Franklin R. – Annals of Dyslexia, 1992
This study used computer word games to train 35 dyslexic readers (mean age 13 years) in automaticity (speed and accuracy) of word recognition. After training, reaction time on the word vocalization and sentence comprehension tasks improved significantly for both trained and untrained stimuli. Results support the automaticity hypothesis.
