Beschreibung

This volume contributes to the growing body of research on developmental dyslexia, focusing on the disorder's behavioural manifestations at different levels of the language system. It is organised into three sections that cover the three main vantage points from which the effects of dyslexia on communication can be observed: neuropsychology, linguistics and the perspective of educators. Together, the chapters provide an insightful overview of the ways in which dyslexia impacts different components of language, including lexical and pragmatic abilities, and present data from experimental and applied research, with suggestions for the application of research-based data in both innovative and traditional language teaching, ways to rehabilitate reading dysfunctions, as well as teacher training. The book will be essential reading for researchers and students investigating dyslexia, as well as foreign language teachers and professionals who work on the rehabilitation of linguistic performance dysfunctions in people with dyslexia.

Rezensionen / Stimmen

What is the contribution of linguistics to the study of dyslexia? This is the question that this book tries to answer, bringing together quality research papers and original experimental reports in a must-read volume that offers food for thought to scholars, educators, careers, and clinicians alike. * Marcella Bertuccelli Papi, University of Pisa, Italy * This is a great resource, offering insights into the precise parts of language that may be impacted by developmental dyslexia, while also attempting to identify plausible causes for such issues and forecasting the route of linguistic development. It provides unique perspectives of interest to a wide, international audience including both practitioners and researchers. * Stefania M. Maci, University of Bergamo, Italy * This excellent collection provides novel insights into the effects of dyslexia on second language learning and the linguistic challenges of dyslexic individuals from different first language backgrounds. It is an ideal resource for researchers in the fields of first and second language acquisition, bi- and multilingualism and language disorders, as well as for teachers of additional languages and language teacher educators. * Judit Kormos, Lancaster University, UK *
