It also discusses the specific procedural learning difficulties (SPLD) framework, which interprets dyslexia as a specific deficit in the procedural learning system as opposed to the declarative memory system.

Keywords:   neural systems, brain, cognition, specific procedural learning difficulties, SPLD, dyslexia, procedural learning system, declarative memory system
