Impact of phonological awareness intervention combined with transcranial direct current stimulation on rapid automatized naming and verbal short term memory in developmental dyslexia: a randomized controlled trial
PA training is valuable to improve RAN and VSTM abilities in dyslexia. Anodal tDCS during the PA intervention had no further therapeutic effect on these skills. Therefore, the use of anodal tDCS over the left parieto-temporal junction is not recommended to improve RAN and VSTM functions in dyslexia.
