Ann Dyslexia . 2013 Nov; 46(1):259-83. PMID: 24234275
It is now thought that the cerebellum is involved in the acquisition of "language dexterity" in addition to its established role in motor skill acquisition and execution. Mild cerebellar impairment,...

Nicolson R, Fawcett A
Ann Dyslexia . 2013 Nov; 44(1):147-64. PMID: 24234050
There is a growing body of evidence that children with dyslexia have problems not just in reading but in a range of skills including several unrelated to reading. In an...

Nicolson R, Fawcett A, Brookes R, Needle J
Dyslexia . 2010 Aug; 16(3):194-212. PMID: 20680991
Three major 'neural systems', specialized for different types of information processing, are the sensory, declarative, and procedural systems. It has been proposed (Trends Neurosci., 30(4), 135-141) that dyslexia may be...

Taroyan N, Nicolson R, Fawcett A
Clin Neurophysiol . 2007 Feb; 118(4):845-55. PMID: 17317301
Objective: To investigate whether attentional difficulties are a "core" feature of developmental Dyslexia. Methods: Behavioural indices and event related potentials (ERPs) were recorded from 10 dyslexic participants (ages 15.5-17.4) and...

Nicolson R, Fawcett A
J Neural Transm Suppl . 2005 Dec; (69):19-36. PMID: 16355601
Theoretical frameworks for dyslexia must explain how the well-established phonological deficits and the literacy deficits arise. Our longstanding research programme has led to a distinctive 'twin level' framework that proposes,...

Fawcett A, Nicolson R, Maclagan F
J Learn Disabil . 2004 Oct; 34(2):119-35. PMID: 15497264
A comprehensive test battery, including phonological, speed, motor and cerebellar tasks, was administered to the entire cohort of two schools for children with learning disabilities. Testing was undertaken blind without...

Nicolson R, Fawcett A, Dean P
Trends Neurosci . 2001 Aug; 24(9):508-11. PMID: 11506881
Surprisingly, the problems faced by many dyslexic children are by no means confined to reading and spelling. There appears to be a general impairment in the ability to perform skills...

Baker K, Williams S, Nicolson R
Percept Psychophys . 2000 Mar; 62(1):81-8. PMID: 10703257
Consecutive sounds of similar structure that are close in frequency or pitch are more likely to be perceived as part of the same sequence than those at greater frequency separations....

BERRY E, Nicolson R, Foster J, Behrmann M, Sagar H
Neuropsychologia . 1999 Jul; 37(7):787-95. PMID: 10408646
This study investigated the possibility that the previously mixed findings relating to cognitive deficits in Parkinson's disease might be attributable to inhomogeneity within the patients sampled, with attentional deficits occurring...

Nicolson R, Fawcett A, BERRY E, Jenkins I, Dean P, Brooks D
Lancet . 1999 May; 353(9165):1662-7. PMID: 10335786
Background: In addition to their impairments in literacy-related skills, dyslexic children show characteristic difficulties in phonological skill, motor skill, and balance. There is behavioural and biochemical evidence that these difficulties...
