Depending on the educational jurisdiction, the term 'Dyslexia' may or may not be used to define a disability in reading. Some educational jurisdictions refer to Dyslexia as a type of learning disability pertaining to reading. However, Dyslexia is often described as a reading disorder or a disability affecting reading or the impairment of the ability to read. Typically, those with Dyslexia have a normal intelligence. The prevalence of Dyslexia has been estimated to occur in between 5-10% of the population. Dyslexia symptoms can range from mild to severe. Categories Affected by Dyslexia Reading Dyslexics will often confuse letters (b for d, p for b etc.) and say words backwards (tac for cat) and will often omit simple words in sentences. Word and letter reversals are common as are the omissions of small words and parts of words. Their ability to see the sequence in words or sentences is somewhat scrambled. Their visual and phonetic memory is extremely weak which causes the deficits in reading.

The study found that sound training via computer exercises can literally rewire children's brains, correcting the sound processing problem and improving reading. According to the study's first author, Nadine Gaab, PhD , of the Developmental Medicine Center Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience at Children's Hospital Boston, the finding may someday help clinicians diagnose dyslexia even before reading begins, and suggests new ways of treating dyslexia, such as musical training. Children with developmental dyslexia have reading problems. The idea that they may have an underlying problem processing sound was introduced by
