Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Dyslexia difficulties originate from ____
A
phonological component of language
B
poor reading instruction
C
family history of dyslexia
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Children with dyslexia most often have the following problems with the phonological component of language: Phonological awareness (explicit awareness of the sounds of language) Phonological memory (memory for the speech sounds in pronunciations of labels (e.g., letter names), parts of words, or entire words)

Detailed explanation-2: -The underlying mechanisms of dyslexia result from differences within the brain’s language processing. Dyslexia is diagnosed through a series of tests of memory, vision, spelling, and reading skills.

Detailed explanation-3: -There is considerable research evidence that the core deficit in many children with developmental dyslexia is a phonological processing deficit. This contributes to difficulty understanding the way words are made up of sounds (phonemes) and how these sounds are mapped onto their written counterparts (graphemes).

Detailed explanation-4: -Phonological Deficits. There is wide consensus that dyslexia is caused by a phonological deficit; that is, a difficulty in the representation of speech sounds (see Hulme and Snowling, 2009, for review). In general, the more severe the deficit, the more marked the symptoms of dyslexia.

Detailed explanation-5: -Phonological dyslexia is a subtype of dyslexia where a person isn’t able to identify the phonemes (letter sounds) that make up words.
