Since the beginning of life, all plant and animal kingdoms have been developed or modified based on gravity along with atmospheric composition and solar radiation existing on Earth. Gravity is mainly encoded by the otolithic sensors of the vestibular system but its role has been largely underestimated in favor of the vestibular semicircular canals and reduced to oculomotor and postural coordination. Over the last decade, it has been demonstrated that sensory information provided by the vestibular system is crucial in spatial-memory processes in rats and humans. More recently a role in attention processes has been raised. This topic aims to report and demonstrate the role and integration of vestibular information in cognitive processes in rodent models and human at the behavioral, imaging and electrophysiological levels.

This study concerns the question whether different reading-related neurocognitive profiles can be observed for reading proficiency based groups of children, who attend the upper levels of Dutch primary education. Besides distinguishing between normal-to-good reading children and children with Reading Disabilities (RD), subgroups are discerned for two frequently reported comorbidities of RD, i.e., Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Specific Language Impairment (SLI). The research of this PhD thesis is organized into two empirical sections on different branches of reading-related neurocognitive research, which are elaborated in five studies. The first section focuses on the cognitive processes of phonemic awareness and rapid automatized naming, and the first study specifically addresses the question as to how the severity of RD affects the relative importance of these processes. Additionally, it is investigated how this works out for above-average and excellent readers. Involving the same processes, the second and third study focus on the issue of comorbidity with SLI and ADHD. The second section contains the fourth and fifth study which investigate the relatively novel link between word reading and two aspects of visual attention, i.e., selective attention and orienting of attention. In the general discussion the employed working model of reading is supplied with empirically based estimates of the neurocognitive effect sizes. A main conclusion of the present study is that the addition of visual attention measurements to a phonological reading model provides an enhanced understanding of the cognitive basis of word reading, and offers interesting new perspectives on differential-diagnostic procedures and treatment planning.

ìBy far, the most comprehensive and detailed coverage of pediatric neuropsychology available in a single book today, Davis provides coverage of basic principles of pediatric neuropsychology, but overall the work highlights applications to daily practice and special problems encountered by the pediatric neuropsychologist.î Cecil R. Reynolds, PhD Texas A&M University "The breadth and depth of this body of work is impressive. Chapters written by some of the best researchers and authors in the field of pediatric neuropsychology address every possible perspective on brain-behavior relationships culminating in an encyclopedic textÖ. This [book] reflects how far and wide pediatric neuropsychology has come in the past 20 years and the promise of how far it will go in the next." Elaine Fletcher-Janzen, EdD, NCSP, ABPdN The Chicago School of Professional Psychology "...it would be hard to imagine a clinical situation in pediatric neuropsychology in whichthis book would fail as a valuable resource."--Archives of Clinical Neuropsychology "I believe there is much to recommend this hefty volume. It is a solid reference that I can see appreciating as a resource as I update my training bibliography."--Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society This landmark reference covers all aspects of pediatric neuropsychology from a research-based perspective, while presenting an applied focus with practical suggestions and guidelines for clinical practice. Useful both as a training manual for graduate students and as a comprehensive reference for experienced practitioners, it is an essential resource for those dealing with a pediatric population. This handbook provides an extensive overview of the most common medical conditions that neuropsychologists encounter while dealing with pediatric populations. It also discusses school-based issues such as special education law, consulting with school staff, and reintegrating children back into mainstream schools. It contains over 100 well-respected authors who are leading researchers in their respective fields. Additionally, each of the 95 chapters includes an up-to-date review of available research, resulting in the most comprehensive text on pediatric neuropsychology available in a single volume. Key Features: Provides thorough information on understanding functional neuroanatomy and development, and on using functional neuroimaging Highlights clinical practice issues, such as legal and ethical decision-making, dealing with child abuse and neglect, and working with school staff Describes a variety of professional issues that neuropsychologists must confront during their daily practice, such as ethics, multiculturalism, child abuse, forensics, and psychopharmacology

Reading comprehension difficulties have been inconsistently described in two common developmental childhood disorders: Reading Disabilities (RD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The etiology, however, of these difficulties is not well understood and the explanation is made more obscure by the high rates of comorbidity between these groups. This study investigated the nature of oral and silent reading comprehension abilities as well as reading related components in the RD and ADHD populations. Participants included 96 adolescents: 32 ADHD, 20 RD, 19 ADHD and RD, and 25 normal controls. A number of standardized measures were used to compare abilities across reading comprehension, reading and language component skills, working memory ability, and attention. Regressions analyses were used to examine the relationship between different reading and language component skills and reading comprehension. Commonality analyses were conducted to explore the interrelationships between the predictors of reading comprehension. Adolescents in the RD groups (RD only and ADHD + RD) had lower scores on measures of reading comprehension relative to normal controls, although these scores remained within the average range. Adolescents in the ADHD group showed more difficulties on silent reading comprehension compared to normal controls, but their scores also remained within the average range. Both the RD group and the ADHD group had significantly lower scores on word reading efficiency compared to the normal comparison group, although the scores for the ADHD group were average. The RD group had significantly lower scores across naming tasks while the ADHD group experienced particular difficulties on nonalphanumeric naming tasks. Adolescents in the RD groups demonstrated more difficulties on language tasks, whereas, the ADHD group shared difficulties with the RD group on an expressive language task requiring the organization of language. Word reading efficiency and language abilities were significant predictors of reading comprehension abilities. Additional reading and language components, such as verbal working memory and inattention, did not make significant contributions beyond reading efficiency and receptive language. Results are discussed with respect to theoretical, clinical, and educational implications. The study emphasizes the importance of targeting interventions for fluency and language weaknesses to address reading comprehension difficulties.
