Dyslexia
What are the symptoms?
Typical characteristics of dyslexia include a lack of phonological awareness and poor phonic decoding skills, poor short-term memory and difficulties with verbal labelling.
PET and Functional MRI studies show that there are differences in the language processing areas in the brains of dyslexic people in the left hemisphere temporo-parietal structures, particularly the angular gyrus.
