    The discriminating role of EEG power spectra in dyslexic children.

    Abstract

    The aim of this investigation is to compare EEG power-density spectra between dyslexic and normal children. The children have been selected on the basis of specific reading and writing tasks; those with severe organic diseases and mental disorders were excluded. Groups aged 8, 9 and 10 years have been compared. In the 8-year-old group the power in the alpha band is higher in normals, in the 9-year-old group there was a higher power of the mu rhythm in normals and in the 10-year-old group the power in the temporal theta band is lower in normals. A possible relation between these findings and psychomotor development is discussed.
