Dysgraphia is characterised by :

  • A.Delayed motor skills
  • B.Difficulties in writing
  • C.Lack of reading fluency
  • D.Repetitive behavioural patterns

Answer: B

Dysgraphia is characterised by difficulties in writing.

Dysgraphia is a specific learning disability in written expression. Signs include illegible or inconsistent handwriting, poor spacing and letter formation, slow and laboured writing, frequent spelling errors and difficulty organising thoughts on paper, even when the child can express the same ideas orally.

Lack of reading fluency points to dyslexia. Delayed motor skills more generally suggest dyspraxia (developmental coordination disorder). Repetitive behavioural patterns are a feature of autism spectrum disorder. Each of these is a different condition from dysgraphia.
