Abstract | This study examined how we can use N1 to predict group membership of poor readers among 46 Hong Kong children (Age: M=8.26, SD=0.72 years old). An offline behavioral reading fluency measure was used to define the grouping; the children who performed in the bottom 15% (after adjusting the effect based on age) in a reading fluency task were defined as the poor readers (n=7), and the remaining children were defined as the typically developing readers (n=39). Electroencephalogram was recorded during a Chinese character lexical decision task, where the children were asked to press a button whenever they saw a real character, and press another button whenever they saw anything that was not a real character. There were four experimental conditions each with 60 trials, including real character, pseudo character, noncharacter, and stroke combination. The N1 in both the left and right occipital-temporal areas were used to predict group membership. Results indicated that the overall correct prediction was at 80.4%, with sensitivity at 71.4% and specificity at 82.1%. Among all the N1 contrasts, the N1 lexicality contrast (real character minus pseudo character) provided the highest odd ratio = 2.51 to the model. These results indicate the possibility of using the N1 to predict poor reader status. |
