Learning Disabilities (Dyslexia etc.)
Asked 2 months ago · Viewed 3,175 times
In the context of educational psychology and specific learning disabilities, apart from reading difficulties, what major characteristics at the level of neurological and cognitive processing are observed in learners suffering from 'Dyslexia'?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Dyslexia is a specific reading disability that mainly affects the processing of language and sounds by the brain. A lack of 'phonological awareness' is a major neurological factor in it, due to which learners experience difficulty in establishing the correct relationship between letters (graphemes) and their sounds (phonemes).
