Child and parental literacy levels within families with a history of dyslexia. by van Bergen, E, de Jong, P, Plakas, A, Maassen, B, van der Leij, A

“…<p><strong>Background</strong>: The present study concerns literacy and its underlying cognitive skills in Dutch children who differ in familial risk (FR) for dyslexia. Previous studies with FR-children were inconclusive regarding the performance of FR-children without dyslexia as compared to the controls. …”

The Effect of Parents' Literacy Skills and Children's Preliteracy Skills on the Risk of Dyslexia. by van Bergen, E, de Jong, P, Maassen, B, van der Leij, A

“…Participants (N = 196, 42 % girls) included familial risk (FR) children with and without dyslexia in Grade 3 and controls. First, we found impairments in phonological awareness, rapid naming, and letter knowledge in FR kindergartners with later dyslexia, and mild phonological-awareness deficits in FR kindergartners without subsequent dyslexia. …”

Children at family risk of dyslexia: a follow-up in early adolescence. by Snowling, M, Muter, V, Carroll, J

“… BACKGROUND: This study is the follow-up in early adolescence of children born to families with a history of dyslexia (Gallagher, Frith, and Snowling, 2000). METHODS: Fifty young people with a family history of dyslexia and 20 young people from control families were assessed at 12-13 years on a battery of tests of literacy and language skills, and they completed questionnaires tapping self-perception and print exposure. …”
