Beyond the well-known reading and spelling difficulties, dyslexic
individuals exhibit marked phonological disorders, poor lexical
retrieval and problems in the comprehension and production of
grammatical structures that are particularly expensive in terms of
processing costs. To account for these difficulties, the author
presents an original hypothesis, proposing that dyslexia is related
to a working memory inefficiency, affecting in particular the
subject's phonological skills and executive functions. The results
of four experimental protocols, assessing dyslexic children's
working memory and their ability to interpret scalar implicatures,
negative sentences and pronominal expressions, are presented and
discussed in this volume. Consistent with the hypothesis outlined
in this book, the results of the four studies show that dyslexics
underperformed in comparison to age-matched controls and even to
younger children in tasks requiring good phonological and
processing abilities.
