White Matter Microstructural Plasticity Associated with Educational Intervention in Reading Disability

Steven L. Meisler, John D. E. Gabrieli, Joanna A. Christodoulou; White matter microstructural plasticity associated with educational intervention in reading disability. Imaging Neuroscience 2024; 2 1–18. doi: https://doi.org/10.1162/imag_a_00108   This study investigates the relationship between reading outcomes and white matter connections that facilitate communication between brain regions critical for proficient reading. Researchers collected reading scores…

Lindamood-Bell Intervention A Pathway to Enhanced Reading Skills in Pupils

  A systematic literature review and a meta-analysis examined the effectiveness of Lindamood-Bell intervention in improving the reading skills of elementary school students with diverse learning needs.  The literature consistently showed positive effects of the intervention on enhancing reading proficiency, with improvements in accuracy, decoding skills, comprehension, and overall academic performance. The intervention’s multi-cognitive sensory…

Reading intervention targeting phonemic awareness and symbol imagery in children with sickle cell disease

St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital implemented a summer reading clinic for children with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) using the Lindamood-Bell intervention. The results showed significant improvements in phonological and symbol imagery skills, suggesting the efficacy of the summer reading intervention for children with SCD. There are implications for extending this intervention to students with other…

“The Giant Black Elephant with White Tusks Stood in a Field of Green Grass”: Cognitive and brain mechanisms underlying aphantasia

The cognitive role of individual differences in imagery generation, the ability to visualize, is critical for human cognition, especially in language comprehension. Aphantasia, a recently identified spectrum of difficulties in visualizing mental images, has become increasingly known in research on cognitive processing. In collaboration with researchers from the University of Alabama, Lindamood-Bell has co-authored a…

The Virtuous Cycle between Education and Neuroscience

Educational neuroscience was born out of the promise that brain imaging would generate discoveries that change how we educate our children. Many neuro-scientists and educators alike feel that this promise has not been fulfilled and have begun to question the utility of this nascent field that is arising at the intersection of two well-established disciplines….

Current Efficacy Research for the Seeing Stars® Program

Seeing Stars is a comprehensive program that teaches phoneme-grapheme correspondence based on the alphabetic structure of the English language. The theoretical basis for this program is grounded on the tenets of Dual Coding Theory (DCT), addressing the dual role of sound and symbol imagery. DCT serves as the best evidence-based theory in cognitive science to…

Intensive Summer Intervention Drives Linear Growth of Reading Skill in Struggling Readers

Donnelly, P. M., Huber, E., & Yeatman, J. D. (2019). Intensive summer intervention drives linear growth of reading skill in struggling readers. Frontiers in Psychology, 10, 1900. doi:10.3389/fpsyg.2019.01900  Abstract A major achievement of reading research has been the development of effective intervention programs for struggling readers. Most intervention studies employ a pre-post design, to examine efficacy, but…
