Dyslexia, ADHD and Eye-Tracking 1 Dr. Anikar Haseloff, University of Hohenheim What are we trying to do?

Dyslexia, ADHD and Eye-Tracking Using Eye-Tracking we want to see, if there are differences in the visual patterns between children suffering from Dyslexia and/ or ADHD ( Attention- deficit/hyperactivity disorder and normal children. Our questions: How can we use Eye-Tracking to discover visual patterns in children What stimuli could be interesting (reading, pictures etc.) 2 Dr. Anikar Haseloff, University of Hohenheim

Using Eye-Tracking we want to see, if there are differences in the visual patterns between children suffering from Dyslexia and/ or ADHD ( Attention- deficit/hyperactivity disorder and normal children.

Our questions:

How can we use Eye-Tracking to discover visual patterns in children

What stimuli could be interesting (reading, pictures etc.)

Dyslexia, ADHD and Eye-Tracking What Theories exist around Dyslexia and ADHD? Little is known about those medical conditions. There are several theories, which identify different problems and causes. Visual problems are one theory beside auditive and mental causes. 3 Dr. Anikar Haseloff, University of Hohenheim

What Theories exist around Dyslexia and ADHD?

Little is known about those medical conditions. There are several theories, which identify different problems and causes.

Visual problems are one theory beside auditive and mental causes.

Dyslexia, ADHD and Eye-Tracking Aim of the Study: analysing visual patterns of children during visual tasks analysing possible differences in visual behaviour between children with dyslexia, children with ADHD and normal children help develop a pre-school dyslexia diagnosis lab test help develop/optimise existing therapeutic approaches 4 Dr. Anikar Haseloff, University of Hohenheim

Aim of the Study:
