A research project was conducted in order to investigate the usefulness of intensive audio–visual training administered to children with dyslexia involving daily voicing exercises. In this study, the children received such voicing training (experimental group). for 30 min a day, 4 days a week, over 5 weeks. They were assessed on a reading task before and after the training. A significant benefit to the experimental group was found after training. These preliminary results underline the role of the phonological components of dyslexia.
