Resumo: This study investigated the correlations and the possible deficits in reading, phonemic awareness, and executive functions among students with developmental dyslexia. A total of 28 students participated in the study, between 9 and 11 years old, 14 with developmental dyslexia and 14 without reading difficulties. Specific instruments were used to assess reading, phonemic awareness, and executive functions. The Spearman test indicated moderate and very significant correlations between performance in tasks of phonemic awareness and reading (recognition and comprehension) and tasks that assessed cognitive functioning involving the following executive functions: cognitive flexibility, working memory, inhibitory control, and orthographic verbal fluency. No correlation was found between the reading and phonemic awareness assessments and the results of the planning done with the Tower of London instrument. The results allowed the researchers to hypothesize that an intervention planned for the development of phonemic awareness and executive functions may have an effect in improving the reading performance of dyslexics

Participaram do estudo 28 estudantes, com idade entre 9 e 11 anos, sendo 14 com dislexia do desenvolvimento e 14 sem dificuldade de leitura. Foram utilizados instrumentos específicos para avaliação da leitura, consciência fonêmica e funções executivas. O teste Spearman indicou correlações moderadas e muito significativas entre o desempenho nas tarefas de consciência fonêmica e leitura (reconhecimento e compreensão) e as tarefas que avaliaram o funcionamento cognitivo envolvendo as seguintes funções executivas: flexibilidade cognitiva, memória de trabalho, controle inibitório e fluência verbal ortográfica. Não foi encontrada correlação entre as avaliações de leitura e consciência fonêmica e planejamento com o instrumento Torre de Londres. Os resultados possibilitam hipotetizar que uma intervenção para o desenvolvimento da consciência fonêmica e das funções executivas pode melhorar o desempenho em leitura dos disléxicos.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2023-01-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7276Psychological Studies; Vol. 38 (2021): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 38 (2021): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 38 (2021): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPenghttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7276/4840Copyright (c) 2023 Giovanna Beatriz Kalva MEDINA, Sandra Regina Kirchner GUIMARÃEShttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMEDINA, Giovanna Beatriz KalvaGUIMARÃES, Sandra Regina Kirchner2023-08-03T13:41:42Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/7276Revistahttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudosPRIhttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudos/oaisbi.ne_estpsi@puc-campinas.edu.br||estudosdepsicologia@puc-campinas.edu.br||psychologicalstudies@puc-campinas.edu.br1982-02750103-166Xopendoar:2023-08-03T13:41:42Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
