Reading Disabilities

These proceedings of the NATO Advanved Study Institute on Differential Diagnosis and Treatments of Reading and Writing Disorders aim to answer the following questions, from their different research programs: What is the nature of differential diagnosis of reading disabilities?; Are intelligence test scores relevant?; How important is pseudoword reading?; What about listening comprehension?; How best can clinicians supplement group results with individual developmental profiles of reading and writing skills?; How do different models of language-related components within a cognitive-developmental framework explain individual differences in reading disabilities?; What is the nature of phonemic awareness, phonological awareness within the broad context of phonological processing in children with reading disabilities?; What are the differential strategies of poor readers/spellers?.
