Bannatyne's proposed "genetic dyslexic" subtype of reading disability (RD) was evaluated using data obtained from 60 (30 monozygotic and 30 dizygotic) pairs of affected twins (in which at least one member of each pair has a reading disorder) and 60 pairs of control twins. The predicted spatial greater than conceptual greater than sequential pattern of means was found to be reliable and specific to the RD sample. While this study does not provide conclusive evidence on the genetic etiology of the proposed subtype, our results do indicate that individuals with this particular profile may constitute a specific subtype of reading disability.
使用从60对(30对同卵双胞胎和30对异卵双胞胎)受影响的双胞胎(每对中至少有一名成员患有阅读障碍)和60对对照双胞胎获得的数据,对班纳蒂恩提出的阅读障碍(RD)“遗传性诵读困难”亚型进行了评估。预测的平均值空间大于概念大于顺序模式被发现是可靠的,并且特定于RD样本。虽然这项研究没有为所提出的亚型的遗传病因提供确凿证据,但我们的结果确实表明,具有这种特定特征的个体可能构成阅读障碍的一种特定亚型。
