    Question

    Priyanka is suffering from "dyslexia". So, which of the following characteristic will she show?

    A.

    Lack of motor-abilities

    B.

    Divergent thinking.

    C.

    Attention deficit disorder.

    D.

    Inability to read fluently.

    Correct option is D

    The correct answer is (d) Inability to read fluently.
    Explanation:
    Dyslexia is a specific learning disability that primarily affects a person's ability to read, spell, and decode words. It is a neurological condition that interferes with the brain's ability to process written language, leading to slow and inaccurate reading despite normal intelligence.
    Information Booster:
    Phonological Awareness: People with dyslexia often struggle to associate letters with the specific sounds they make.
    Reading Fluency: Dyslexic learners may read slowly, skip lines, or mispronounce common words during oral reading.
    Spelling Difficulties: Because of the processing issues, spelling is often inconsistent and highly phonetic.
    Lifelong Condition: While dyslexia cannot be cured, students can succeed with proper interventions and multisensory teaching methods.
    Normal Intelligence: Dyslexia is not a reflection of a student's IQ; many highly creative and successful people have dyslexia.
    Additional Points:
    Option (a): Misidentification – Lack of motor abilities is associated with 'Dyspraxia', not dyslexia.
    Option (b): Creative trait – While many dyslexics are divergent thinkers, it is not a diagnostic characteristic of the disorder itself.
    Option (c): Comorbid condition – ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) often co-occurs with dyslexia, but they are separate conditions.

    So the correct answer is (d)
