Research Abstract |
We conducted reading tasks in Japanese children with developmental dyslexia under controlled experimental conditions in order to reveal the effect of the colour and luminance factors by coloured overlays on reading speed. We evaluated the duration time of reading tasks of hiragana words, katakana words, hiragana non-words, katakana non-words, and sentences in Japanese speaking children(42normal, 33with developmental dyslexia). The durationtime of the reading tasks was measured with and without coloured overlays and neutraldensity overlays. All participants did not show a significant difference in the reading durationunder the three conditions. Our results suggest that using coloured overlays does not improve reading speed in Japanese children with developmental dyslexia.
