Early Markers of Dyslexia: Fostering a Synergistic Partnership between Cognitive Neuroscientists and Educators to Dispel Neuromyths and Expand Expertise
Direct linkDirect link
Sharon A. Ryan – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Educator expertise is urgently needed in supporting young children displaying early markers of dyslexia; yet, there remains an abundance of neuromyths associated with dyslexia that need remediation in order to provide effective interventions. Thus, the purpose of this study was to determine kindergarten through Grade two educators' baseline…

Wagner, Nicholas; Mills-Koonce, Roger; Willoughby, Michael; Propper, Cathi; Rehder, Peter; Gueron-Sela, Noa – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2017
Extant literature suggests that oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) and callous-unemotional (CU) behaviors in childhood and adolescence are associated with distinct patterns of psychophysiological functioning, and that individual differences in these patterns have implications for developmental pathways to disorder. Very little is known about the…

Moutsios-Rentzos, Andreas; Stamatis, Panagiotis J. – Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology, 2015
Introduction. In this study, we focus on the relationship between the students' mathematical thinking and their non-mechanically identified eye-movements with the purpose to gain deeper understanding about the students' reasoning processes and to investigate the feasibility of incorporating eye-movement information in everyday pedagogy. Method.…

Golding, Alison; Boes, Claudia; Nordin-Bates, Sanna M. – Research in Dance Education, 2016
The understanding of the significance of movement to learning benefits from advances in neuroscience. This study considered a neurophysiological perspective in relation to the educational theory of Accelerated Learning (AL) for which little empirical evidence exists. Childhood development themes and learning strategies from a…

Willner, Cynthia J.; Gatzke-Kopp, Lisa M.; Bierman, Karen L.; Greenberg, Mark T.; Segalowitz, Sidney J. – Developmental Psychology, 2015
Learning-related behaviors are important for school success. Socioeconomic disadvantage confers risk for less adaptive learning-related behaviors at school entry, yet substantial variability in school readiness exists within socioeconomically disadvantaged populations. Investigation of neurophysiological systems associated with learning-related…
