简要总结
With this study, we wish to test how effective/ beneficial music activities can be for children with dyslexia.
详细描述
Studies have shown that music in the form of training (i.e., intervention) is able to facilitate linguistic processes (e.g., phonological encoding/decoding, categorical perception) and cognitive functions (e.g., working memory) in children that have dyslexia or reading difficulties. In addition to this, music trainings with a focus on entrainment can improve phonological as well as reading skills.
In line with the above, we have designed and developed a music training programme. This programme, which is called RitMoZ Training (i.e., from Ritmus és Mozgás és Zene: meaning Rhythm and Movement and Music in Hungarian language), is designed for (Hungarian) children who have dyslexia or reading difficulties.
In order to assess the efficacy of the music training, we are going to conduct a randomized controlled trial which consists of a pre-training phase, a training phase and a post-training phase.

结局指标
主要结局
Spelling test
时间窗: 4-7 minutes
For the assessment of spelling, the present subtest is applied from the shortened version of the 3DM-H. Both spelling accuracy and reaction time are measured.
Rapid Automatized Naming (RAN) test
时间窗: 3-5 minutes
To assess rapid naming of letters, digits and objects, the present subtest is applied from the shortened version of the 3DM-H. Here, the processing speed is measured.
Choice reaction time test
时间窗: 1 - 2 minutes
The present subtest is applied from the shortened version of the 3DM-H; here, the reaction time is measured.
Auditory discrimination of acoustic and phonetic alteration of pseudowords
时间窗: 20 minutes
This is an Event-Related Potentials (ERPs) task where a speech multifeature paradigm is applied. In the current task, the amplitudes of the Mismatch Negativity (MMN) responses - which are elicited in certain time windows - are measured in every condition.
Reading test
时间窗: 4 minutes
For the assessment of the ability to read aloud series of high frequency words, low frequency words and pseudowords, is applied from the shortened 3DM-H (Differential Diagnostics of Dyslexia Maastricht - Hungarian adaptation). With this test, reading speed, fluency and accuracy and pseudoword accuracy are measured.
Phoneme deletion test
时间窗: 3-7 minutes
For the assessment of phoneme deletion, the present subtest is applied from the shortened version of the 3DM-H. Both accuracy and reaction time are measured.
Letter-sound identification test
时间窗: 2-3 minutes
For the assessment of letter-sound identification, the present subtest is applied from the shortened version of the 3DM-H. Both accuracy and reaction time are measured.
Letter-sound discrimination test
时间窗: 2 - 4 minutes
For the assessment of letter-sound discrimination, the present subtest is applied from the shortened version of the 3DM-H. Both accuracy and reaction time are measured.
Lexical decision task
时间窗: 12- 15 minutes
To assess lexical decision, the present test is applied. Here, accuracy is measured.
