Sažetak
Reading and writing are multimodal activities where graphemes have to be converted to phonemes and vice-versa, respectively. To convey a meaning during this process their specific order should be followed. In order to recognize two-digit number, not only identity, but also the position of a number’s constituent digits has to be accurately processed. Since sequencing difficulties and transposing like their result are one of the most common symptoms of reading and writing impairment (developmental dyslexia), in this study we examined the transposed number effect in auditory- visual number matching task in dyslexic children and children with no reading and writing difficulties. Participants had to decide whether the number presented on the screen was the same one that was auditory presented. While controlling the distance effect, reaction time and correct responses were recorded in three conditions: matching the same numbers (e.g. 54 - 54), different non-related numbers (e.g. 54 – 27) and transposed numbers (e.g. 54 – 45). Differences within and between groups were examined. The results obtained by auditory-visual number matching task were discussed in reference to number processing theories and different approaches to dyslexia.
