Postural Control in Children with Dyslexia: Effects of Emotional Stimuli in a Dual‐Task Environment

Abstract: The aim of this study was to compare the visual exploration strategies used during a postural control task across participants with and without dyslexia. We simultaneously recorded eye movements and postural control while children were viewing different types of emotional faces. Twenty-two children with dyslexia and twenty-two aged-matched children without dyslexia participated in the study. We analysed the surface area, the length and the mean velocity of the centre of pressure for balance in parallel with vi… Show more

“…The main result of the present study showed that for both children with and without intellectual disability walking performance degraded under the DT conditions compared to the ST one. Several studies observed that DT worsened walking performance in a variety of populations like healthy children (Chauvel et al, ; Fabri et al, ), children with dyslexia (Goulème, Gerard, & Bucci, ), children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (Manicolo, Grob, & Hagmann‐von, ), and adolescents with down syndom (Horvat et al, ), although other studies showed no effect of DT walking on gait variability in typically developing children (Abbruzzese et al, ; Katz‐Leurer, Rotem, & Meyer, ; Leitner et al, ). For children with intellectual disability, our results are therefore the first to show that a concurrent cognitive and motor tasks affect walking performance.…”

“…Despite the apparent DT effect on walking in both groups, the DT interferences are more pronounced in children with intellectual disability. These results may be explained by the fact that individuals presenting many disorders (motor, cognitive or neurological) have difficulties to perform two tasks in the same time (Goulème et al, ; Jacobi et al, ; Theill, Martin, Schumacher, Bridenbaugh, & Kressig, ). Similarly, a previous study (Horvat et al, ) indicated significant differences in several walking parameters in individuals with DS when compared to individuals without disabilities in DT situation.…”

“…The main component of this system is individually differentiated postural tension, and the magnitude of postural tension influences the type of antigravity activity. Along with reduced postural tension, a compensatory antigravitational system develops [21]. In the case of postural tension disorders, there is no possibility to stabilise body segments [22].…”

“…For example, a growing area of research suggests that emotion processing may be impaired in children with RD ( 89 ). This impairment has important implications for assessing for comorbid depression and anxiety in RD ( 44 ), since deficits in understanding emotions, depressive and anxious symptoms may go underreported.…”
