Q

Richlan (2012) what did he find

A

Under-activity in LH reading network regions associated with phonological processing and whole word recognition (VWFA)
Over active left inferior frontal gurus - this acsesses phonological output representations - suggests getting them is over effortful

Q

What does richlan 2012 show

A

Weaker activation in phonological processing abilities = could suggest a deficit in phonological processing

Q

What did heim (2015) find

A

Phonology training improved reading in dyslexics

Also phonology training and improved reading corresponded with brain activity increases in VWFA

Q

What does heim (2015) results show

A

Phonology interventions created increased activation in VWFA in dyslexics
If training in phonology lead to more irregular brain activation suggests that’s where the deficit lied

Q

What is Heim (2015) point for an essay on phonology
