ABSTRACT
A task of visual detection of the coherent movement, made in the Neurosciences and
Processing of Images and Signs Center from Oriente University was applied in Santiago
de Cuba, by means of which it was determined that the dyslexic students studied,
could detect the visual movement, but they made many mistakes and omissions,
indicative of a slight weakening of the visual detection process. Perceptive deficiencies
were also observed in them, related with the increment of the density of the points
which moved in the panels and their percentage decrease, as well as with the increase
of the response time, showing of a reduction of the sensibility to the visual perception
of movement in these students with development dyslexia.
