Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Phonological deficits evaluated by the metaphonological capabilities including a subtraction test and phonemic Acronym test and memory capacity with phonological phonological memory test.

    Evaluate whether there is a specificity of phonological deficits in children with NF1 compared with a population of children with the same age and same reading level, taking into account the intellectual level.

    24 hours

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Visual-perceptual performance established from three tests: Test of Identical Forms (Thurstone), Judgment Test of orientation Lines (Benton) and global and partial deferral Tasks (S Valdois).

    24 hours

Study Arms (2)

Children NF1

EXPERIMENTAL

Children diagnosed with NF1 according the NIH criteria Neuropsychological assessments

Other: Neuropsychological assessments

Control group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Control group children without NF1 with the same reading level Neuropsychological assessments

Other: Neuropsychological assessments

Interventions

Neuropsychological assessments: Intelligence Quotient (WISC-IV) Reading tests (reading accuracy, reading speed, reading comprehension and strategy): Alouette test, Lobrot test, Odedys test. Visio-spatial skill (JLO, Thurston, Corsi tests) Attention (CPT 2, CBCL) Receptive oral language (EVIP)
