Dyslexia is a neurological condition that prevents the signals that are received from the eyes to be clearly interpreted by the brain. One of the results is that dyslexics “see” things differently. Dyslexics require special training to be able to interpret what they see in ways that let them extract the necessary info to be able to interpret them correctly.
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” consists of “dys” – not working, as in “dysfunctional” and “lexia” – as in “lexicon” a dictionary of words or terms. This origin comes from the often observed problem that those with dyslexia have with reading.
About 10% of the general population has some sort of dyslexia, in some degree.
There are symptoms of dyslexia that one can look for, such as difficulty with reading for understanding, or 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 by taking a professionally prepared special dyslexia test.
The good news is, in the last year or so, there is now an outstanding accredited dyslexia test online.
It’s easy to have a full dyslexia assessment made over the web by taking a complete adult dyslexia test at home, online.
The complete test requires a little over half an hour. Also, it is very affordable; costs less than a trip to your medical professional!
There are actually literally a lot of adult dyslexics that are completely unaware that a great many of their problems could be solved by dyslexia treatment. They could be easily helped once identified. Click any link within this blog posting to receive full information…
