| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study explored characteristics of visual processing of a Kanji by measuring the eye movement at the time of perceiving and memorizing it for the children with the difficulty of reading and writing. As a result, the following things became clear. First, they gaze at the upper area than lower area, and that there is no significant difference in the area on either side. Second, the area they gaze at depends on the form of the Kanji. Third, in cases that the memory and recall of Kanji are weak, there is a tendency to focus only on a specific area. It suggests that they may not be able to perceive the components of Kanji when memorizing.

本研究では、眼球運動計測により読み書き困難児の漢字の視覚的処理の特徴を明らかにすることができた。本研究で用いた眼球運動のような生理指標の計測は、困難の背景要因を推定するうえで有用な情報を提供するものと考える。神経心理学的検査と併せて眼球運動計測による生理学的データを得ることは、視覚的処理のプロセスや特徴について信頼性の高い分析と深い解釈が可能となり、読み書き困難の個々の要因に応じた適切なアプローチにつながることが期待される。
