| Abstract: | Despite recent developments in research and theory, investigators and practitioners continue to rely on rather traditional
definitions of dyslexia. This paper discusses some of the problems with traditional definitions and reviews a rapidly growing
body of research that suggests a more comprehensive definition. According to this definition, dyslexia is a developmental
language disorder that involves a deficit(s) in phonological processing. This disorder manifests itself in various phonological
difficulties as well as a specific reading disability. |
