Cainelli, Elisa; Vedovelli, Luca; Carretti, Barbara; Bisiacchi, Patrizia – Annals of Dyslexia, 2023
Dyslexia is one of the most studied learning disorders. Despite this, its biological basis and main causes are still not fully understood. Electroencephalography (EEG) could be a powerful tool in identifying the underlying mechanisms, but knowledge of the EEG correlates of developmental dyslexia (DD) remains elusive. We aimed to systematically…

Rakhlin, Natalia; Landi, Nicole; Lee, Maria; Magnuson, James S.; Naumova, Oxana Yu.; Ovchinnikova, Irina V.; Grigorenko, Elena L. – New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, 2020
The etiological mechanisms of the genetic underpinnings of developmental language disorder (DLD) are unknown, in part due to the behavioral heterogeneity of the disorder's manifestations. In this study, we explored an association between the SETBP1 gene (18q21.1), revealed in a genome-wide association study of DLD in a geographically isolated…

Badcock, Nicholas A.; Bishop, Dorothy V. M.; Hardiman, Mervyn J.; Barry, Johanna G.; Watkins, Kate E. – Brain and Language, 2012
We assessed the relationship between brain structure and function in 10 individuals with specific language impairment (SLI), compared to six unaffected siblings, and 16 unrelated control participants with typical language. Voxel-based morphometry indicated that grey matter in the SLI group, relative to controls, was increased in the left inferior…
