Abstract:

The research of ocular motor activity in children with specific developmental disorders of scholastic skills (SDDSS) with the help of eye tracking method revealed a tendency for impairement of the accuracy of eye fixations on a line when reading. By the age of 10 a difference between children with SDDSS and children without dysfunctions becomes evident. The children from the control group have a significant decrease in the duration of fixations, which was not found in the intervention group.
