Preventing Dyslexia

چکیده
Motivation: The prevalence of dyslexia among the student body is estimated to range from 3-5% [14] to 20% [12] depending on when the study was conducted, the criteria used to define dyslexia and the sociocultural background. In the USA, dyslexics constitute 80-85% of learning disabled students [11,12]. The etiology and the remediation of dyslexia are widely researched. However, the interest in the prevention of dyslexia is less obvious. If there is a way for preventing or reducing the incidence of dyslexia, it is important to find out how and then implement it.
