Research Interest
Dr. Denton’s research focuses on the prevention and remediation of reading difficulties and disabilities, including dyslexia, in children in kindergarten through grade 12. Her research projects examine treatments for children who have both ADHD and reading difficulties, interventions for children in grades K-3 with or at-risk for reading disabilities, the effects on reading of the treatment of convergence insufficiency syndrome (a vision condition), and adolescent reading engagement and reading comprehension. Her research is funded by grants from the National Institutes of Health and the US Department of Education.
