Overview

Cognitive profiles reveal unique strengths and weaknesses in dyslexic students, indicating predictors of dyslexia.

Key Points

  • Dyslexic adults exhibited lower full scale iq scores compared to controls but remained within an average range.
  • Deficits were observed in working memory index and processing speed index, affecting their overall cognitive profile.
  • Comparison with peers showed similar performance in verbal comprehension index and perceptual reasoning index.
  • Logistic regression identified working memory index and processing speed index as reliable predictors of dyslexia.
