Reading is actually one of the most entertaining hobbies. It gives one an experience which is similar to that of watching films. However, many says that reading is more fun since you are the ones who will generate the visualizations and you would feel the situations more vividly as if you are the protagonist in the story.
But aside from the joy and recreation it brings, it also benefits you a lot. Basically, it assists you in your struggles with your academic endeavors as well as with your dealings with life. Given this, the skill of knowing how to read holds a very valuable role in life. But there are some disabilities which can which cause some impediments in the skill called the reading disorders.
This disorder is identified if there is a recognizable impairment in reading such as in speed, accuracy, and comprehension. But it is only diagnosed to be a disability if the impairment goes to as much as affecting the academic achievement of a person as well as his daily living. In other terms, people call this disability as dyslexia.
But it is not quite the case, since dyslexia usually involves deficits in the area of spelling and writing. Basically, this disorder is defined as a learning disorder which is characterized by a valuable disparity between the general intelligence of the person and his skills in reading. It is the case where one experiences severe difficulty in displaying the skill even with normal intelligence.
It is actually far from the assumption that one who has this disorder is not at all intelligent, but that, it is part of the many learning disorders. Speaking of learning disorders, they actually refer to some kind of difficulty in learning as well as poor performance in academics. However, it is not associated to low intelligence, mental retardation, lack of learning opportunities, and other common learning disabilities.
It is just that this impairment persists even to people who are of normal intelligence, sufficient educational opportunities, and the motivation to learn how to read. It this impairment, there is a very valuable gap between the expected performance level as well as the actual achievement. So it is very much like the case of those with mathematical and language disorders.
So common problems which people with this impairment have include the following. One is poor comprehension when reading a material either orally or silently. Another is omission of words and reversal of letters. Aside from that, they may also encounter difficulty in decoding single words and associating them with sounds. They also have limited vocabulary.
With several studies, researches found out that the cause of this disorder is due to some mutations of genes corresponding to the language skills and that it is not necessarily inherited. That is because the ninety percent of individuals who have this do not belong to families with a history of the disorder. It is just that there is some malfunction in the language lobe of the brain.
But since this disability wastes much of what has to be perform in life, treatments were identified. Basically, the approach may vary since it has been agreed that the diagnosis be catered to. This means that the instruction would be customized as to the particular area of impairment an individual suffers.
