Being Together in Time: Musical Experience and the Mirror Neuron System (2009, background): “, Bradley & Bryant, 1983), it was hypothesized that focusing on musical timing skills in a multisensory, musical activity program would have a positive effect on their language skills (Overy, 2000).”
Associations Between Length of Music Training and Reading Skills in Children (2011, background): “Similarly, Overy found that dyslexic children and those at high risk for developing dyslexia have impaired rhythmic processing skills— especially for rhythm production—but normal pitch processing skills (Overy, 2000, 2003; Overy et al., 2003).”
The effect of piano lessons on the vocabulary and verbal sequencing skills of primary grade students (2009, background): “In another study on children diagnosed with dyslexia, exposure to rhythm-based music training was found to improve both phonemic awareness and spelling skills (Overy, 2000, 2003).”
