Determining Dyslexia's True Cause
[ send me this paper ]
A 20 page paper discussing dyslexia in terms of its status as a learning disability and of current research, and from the perspective of guidance counseling. The broad term of 'learning disability' generally is reserved for Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Dyslexia. More severe restraints on learning also affect general intelligence, which neither ADD nor dyslexia does. In all respects aside from those of the specific afflictions, sufferers of these learning disabilities not only possess average intelligence, there also is a significant percentage of them whose intelligence level is considered to be far above normal. The official word on causes of these learning disabilities is that the cause is unknown, but several researchers believe there have been some important questions answered in the last several years of research, including a link to abnormalities in the brain's processing of certain sounds. The paper proposes a questionnaire-based study centered on school guidance counselors. Bibliography lists 29 sources.
