Abstract:
The imaging genetics of specific reading disabilities (SRD) is an emerging field that aims to characterize the disabilities’ neurobiological causes, including atypical brain structure and function and distinct genetic architecture. The present review aimed to summarize current imaging genetics studies of SRD, characterize the effect sizes of reported results by calculating Cohen’s d, complete a Fisher’s Combined Probability Test for genes featured in multiple studies, and determine areas for future research. Future research should focus on exploratory approaches to identify previously undiscovered genes. Using comprehensive neuroimaging and genetic techniques, and using larger samples, diverse stages of development, and longitudinal investigations, would help researchers understand the neurobiological correlates of SRD to improve early identification.
