A New Way To Evaluate Dyslexia Wednesday, June 15, 2011 - Janice Karin Home >> News >> Innovation

Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts and Stanford University in Palo Alto, California have developed a new way to predict whether children with dyslexia will likely improve their reading skills over time or retain early difficulties with the task. The researchers were able to identify specific types of brain activity present in children whose reading ability improve over time. These same types of brain activity were absent in those readers who continue to have severe difficulties as they grow up.

Another interesting result is that metrics currently in wide use to evaluate dyslexics and their potential for improved reading do not appear to have any actual correlation to how much reading levels improve over time. In particular, intelligence and IQ do not appear to be significant factors in how well dyslexics learn to read. Much more research is needed in this area, especially with younger children at earlier stages in their learning process. However, these initial findings suggest that reading instruction using several alternate methods or, at the very least, not explicitly tied to the most common method of sounding out letters would greatly help children learn to read at their full potential (whatever that may be for each individual child). Read more about these methods for predicting reading ability in this MIT press release or this Stanford University School of Medicine press release. |

Seems as if what the data actually indicates is that there are at a minimum 2 distinct types of dyslexia. I would infer that more work is needed to identify the best intervention for different types of dyslexia. |
