TLDR
Surprisingly, the result showed that the participants with dyslexia produced a shallower attentional blink than normal controls, which may be interpreted as showing differences in the way the two groups encode information in episodic memory.About:

Sluggish engagement and disengagement of non-spatial attention in dyslexic children.
Andrea Facoetti,Andrea Facoetti,Milena Ruffino,Andrea Peru,Andrea Peru,Pierluigi Paganoni,Leonardo Chelazzi +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that non-spatial attention deficits (possibly related to a parietal cortex dysfunction) may selectively impair the reading development via sub-lexical mechanisms.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the visual processing deficit of simultaneously displayed letters, observed in the two dyslexic individuals reported in the current study, stems from at least two distinct cognitive sources: a reduction of the rate of-letter-information uptake, and a limitation of the maximal number of elements extracted from a brief visual display and stored in visual short-term memory.

A conceptual and methodological framework for measuring and modulating the attentional blink
Mary H. MacLean,Karen M. Arnell +1 more
TL;DR: The important conceptual and methodological issues that should be considered when obtaining, analyzing, and interpreting AB data are discussed, and the pros and cons of various approaches are discussed while providing suggestions as to how best to validly represent the AB and its modulations.

The attentional blink reveals sluggish attentional shifting in adolescents with specific language impairment
TL;DR: The results were interpreted to suggest that adolescents with language impairments have an AB which differs from non-impaired individuals in both magnitude and duration.

TL;DR: Results showed that adults with dyslexia had difficulties performing the AB and UFOV tasks, which were explained by an impaired ability to process dual targets, longer AB recovery time, and deficits in processing rapidly changing visual displays.

The episodic buffer: a new component of working memory?
TL;DR: The revised model differs from the old principally in focussing attention on the processes of integrating information, rather than on the isolation of the subsystems, which provides a better basis for tackling the more complex aspects of executive control in working memory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toward an instance theory of automatization
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a theory in which automatization is construed as the acquisition of a domainspeciSc knowledge base, formed of separate representations, instances, of each exposure to the task.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temporary suppression of visual processing in an RSVP task: an attentional blink? .
TL;DR: The authors found that the presentation of stimuli after the target but before target-identification processes are complete produces interference at a letter recognition stage, which may cause the temporary suppression of visual attention mechanisms observed in the present study.
Journal ArticleDOI
The double-deficit hypothesis for the developmental dyslexias.
TL;DR: In this paper, the double-deficit hypothesis was proposed for dyslexia, i.e., phonological deficits and processes underlying naming-speed deficits represent two separable sources of reading dysfunction.

A two-stage model for multiple target detection in rapid serial visual presentation.

TL;DR: Results of Experiments 3-5 confirmed that AB is triggered by local interference from immediate posttarget stimulation and showed thatAB is modulated by the discriminability between the 1st target and the immediately following distractor.
