Objectives
Objective 1. To identify the relative strengths in creativity and cognitive and socio-emotional resilience of Chinese children at risk of dyslexia for five consecutive years (i.e., K2-P3) Objective 2. To examine the onset and the neural correlates of statistical learning deficits in children at family risk of dyslexia before and after formal reading instruction (K2, P1, P3) Objective 3. To develop the Integrated Dyslexic Interface Design (I-DID) by evaluating the relative efficacy of strength-deficit based reading prevention and intervention programs over a 2-year period (P2, P3)
