WASHINGTON (AP) -- When dyslexic children took part in a program to teach
them better reading skills their brains began functioning more like the
brains of normal children, a new study reports.
Dyslexia, a reading and language disorder, affects between 5 percent and 10
percent of the population. Sometimes called "word blindness," it is
associated with reduced brain activity in a portion of the left half of the
brain.
