Testing for Dyslexia
Dyslexia in children is a frequent cause of learning disabilities. One of the more common learning disabilities is that caused by dyslexia. Dyslexia is a neurological condition in which the signals received from the eyes are not clearly interpreted by the brain. The result is that dyslexic people (dyslexics) see things differently.
Dyslexia usually shows up first in reading problems. When someone reads, they are interpreting symbols on paper into words or thoughts. If they read aloud, they are converting symbols on paper into spoken words with their appropriate and correct sounds. Reading silently, they are converting symbols into thoughts.
The word “dyslexia” itself, consists of “dys” -not working, as in “dysfunctional” and “lexia” – having to do with reading, words, documents. It is based on this often observed problem with reading.|The origin of the term “dyslexia” is in the idea of “problems with reading”. The word is made up of “dys” as in not functioning and “lexia” from pertaining to books, reading, word orders.
Approximately 1 person in every 10 has some type of dyslexia, to some degree. There are symptoms of dyslexia that many educators are trained to look for, such as difficulty with reading aloud. But there is really only one way to know for sure whether a person has dyslexia or not and to what degree. That is through a special dyslexic test.
