In the RR group, we also identified a subgroup of children characterized additionally by somewhat lower Verbal IQ and significant slow- ing of rapid/sequential movements of the right hand when compared with the IR and NR groups, consistent with inefficient functioning of left frontal circuits. Our findings indicate that frontal/executive capacities appear to be important adjuncts to reading remediation. It may be that the capacity for integrating and organizing complex information is an im- portant tool in a child's efforts to learn to use compensatory skills in overcoming a read- ing disability. Therefore, early identification of children with both reading and executive function deficits would allow tutoring to focus on both domains to improve outcome. Crews, K., Work, P. M. L., D'Amato, R. C., & Pelletier, S. L. F. Evaluating the Neuropsychological Consequences of Perinatal Problems in Children With and Without Learning Disabilities. The dramatic increase in the survival rates of neonates suffering perinatal insult presents interesting questions regarding the impact of Perinatal problems on neurodevelopment. This study was conducted to evaluate the relationship between perinatal factors and nor- mal neuropsychological functioning versus perinatal factors and TI - Evaluating the neuropsychological consequences of perinatal problems in children with and without learning disabilities JO - Archives of Clinical Neuropsychology DO - 10.1093/arclin/14.1.4 DA - 1999-01-01 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/oxford-university-press/evaluating-the-neuropsychological-consequences-of-perinatal-problems-0sSkf25uvI SP - 4 EP - 4 VL - 14 IS - 1 DP - DeepDyve ER -
