• W2033553648 abstract "The status of remedial methods in the treatment of developmental dyslexia remains uncertain (Myers & Hammill, 1976) . Nevertheless, individual practitioners feel that, in some cases, the VAKT (visual-acoustic-kinesthetic-tactile) method is helpful. Below, a suggestion will be offered as to why the VAKT method works when it does work. In reading and writing, both the visual and auditory domains are essential in encoding and decoding. In general, both vision and audition involve activity in both hemispheres. In vision, scanning movements of the eyes ensure that fixated stimuli activate receptors which project to both the ipsiand contralateral hemispheres, and in audition the inherent cross-connections at various levels of the system ensure that auditory stimuli reach both hemispheres. There is some consensus that in spite of this provision for bilateral representation of visual and auditory information, there is a functional asymmetry in the way in which visual and auditory information during the reading and writing process is processed. In fact, one of the more enduring structural models for developmental dyslexia suggests that insufficiently developed lateral specialization of function may k a factor contributing to problems of some dyslexics. Whi le the more basic versions of this model have had scant support, more complex interpretations continue to hold some promise (Spreen, 1978). In the VAKT method, a n attempt is made to have conjoint activiry in all four sensory channels (visual, acoustic, kinesthetic, tactile) while reading and writing. In contrast to stimuli in the visual and auditory domain, both kinesthetic and tactile stimuli of the hand are confined to the contralateral hemisphere: there is no mechanism equivalent to the ones available to visual and auditory stimuli which would lead to immediate bilateral representation. Moreover, there is little evidence to suggest that there are any direct uanscallosal connections between the corresponding prlrnary sensory projection areas of the two hands (Jones & Powell, 1973) . This leads to a simple hypothesis: when using kinesthetic and tactile components in conjunction with visual and auditory processes, the former might force a clear lateralization of the latter during the process of reading and writing. This, in turn, leads to the prediction that VAKT method may be of use in those cases where dyslexic disturbances arise through unclearly defined functional lateralization of the hemispheres for processes involved in reading and writing. The hypothesis lends itself to empirical test." @default.
