The primary characteristic of children with 'dyslexia' includes

  • A.attention deficit disorders.
  • B.divergent thinking; fluency in reading.
  • C.inability to read fluently.
  • D.engaging in repetitive locomotor actions.

Answer: C

The primary characteristic of dyslexia is inability to read fluently.

Dyslexia is a specific learning disability that affects reading. Children with dyslexia have difficulty decoding words, recognising them quickly and spelling, so they read slowly and with effort, even though their general intelligence is usually normal.

Attention deficit is the mark of ADHD, a separate condition. Fluent reading is the opposite of dyslexia, and repetitive movements are associated with conditions such as autism, not with dyslexia.
