disleksijos

Disleksija, also known as dyslexia, is a specific learning disability that affects the way an individual processes and understands written language. It is characterized by difficulties with accurate and/or fluent word recognition and by poor spelling and decoding abilities. These difficulties are unexpected for the individual's intelligence, age, and educational background. Dyslexia is not due to a lack of ability, motivation, or opportunity, but rather a difference in the way the brain processes information.

The exact cause of dyslexia is not fully understood, but it is believed to be related to differences in the brain's wiring, particularly in the areas responsible for language and reading. Dyslexia can affect reading, writing, and spelling, but it does not affect intelligence, creativity, or the ability to learn other skills. It is estimated to affect about 5-10% of the population.

Individuals with dyslexia often have strengths in other areas, such as music, art, and math. They may also be highly creative and innovative. Dyslexia can be diagnosed through a comprehensive evaluation by a qualified professional, such as a psychologist or a specialist in learning disabilities.

There is no cure for dyslexia, but various interventions and accommodations can help individuals with dyslexia to succeed in school and in life. These may include specialized instruction, assistive technology, and accommodations in the classroom. With the right support, individuals with dyslexia can achieve great success and make significant contributions to society.
