Abstract
It has been hypothesized that deficits in auditory temporal processing are underlying phonological processing problems in dyslexia. At the same time, envelope enhancement (EE) strategies have shown potential to reduce at least some of these deficits. Interventions for dyslexia are however mostly provided after the most effective intervention period. To overcome this paradox we need to develop preventive interventions. In this research seminar, I will present the results of a preventive intervention in children at cognitive risk for dyslexia at both the behavioral and the neurophysiological level, using an auditory perceptive task and ASSRs.
