DYSLEXIA: THE REAL ISSUES Prof. Donald C. Cushenberry COORDINATOR, READING CENTER UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA, OMAHA, NEBRASKA One of the interesting philosophical issues or discussions present on the educational scene at the moment is that of the role of dyslexia as a cause for basic reading deficits. The purposes of this article are to present briefly some of the historical trends regarding the topic; analyze a few current definitions; outline several procedures for diagnosing the difficulty; offer a description of four techniques for dealing with the problem; and provide a response to three questions dealing with the real issues of dyslexia. Historical Background of Dyslexia The development of the term, has evolved slowly during the past sixty years. From the period of 1925-1960, various psychologists and educators used such words as strephosymbolia to describe a condition of mixed dominance and uncoordinated functions. Others words and phrases used during this period were word blindness, '.'alexia, brain injured, primary reading disability, and developmental lag. As far back as 1917, Dr. James Hinshelwood, a Scottish physician, compiled a volume entitled Congenital Word Blz'ndness (1917). He contended generally that the loss of visual memory centers in the could create a reading problem. Dr. Samuel T. Orton (1937), a famous Iowa neurologist, did not believe that dyslexia, as a condition, was the real root of reading problems. It was his belief that many disabled readers possessed strephosymbolia, a deficiency which caused children to reverse such common words as saw and was. During the last seventeen years, a plethora of articles have appeared in the literature regarding the topic. The sections which follow describe the author's opinion as well as the thoughts of various writers on the important subjects of definition, evaluation, and remediation of dyslexia. Definition of Dyslexia A careful review of articles written in recent years on the subject leads one to the conclusion that there is some major disagreement as to whether such a condition exists. For example, Rafferty (1968), indicates that he has been waiting for somebody with expertise to tee off on progressive education's latest excuse for poor reading: dyslexia. He believes that dyslexia neatly fits education's classic definition of the perfect alibi; it's scientific sounding, it's mysterious, and it's something the teacher can't be expected to do much about. Labeling children dyslexic really has more political and economic" @default.
