Article Abstract
Reading difficulties,including dyslexia,occur as part of a continuum that also includes normal reading ability.Dyslexia is not an all-or-none phenomenon,but like hypertension,occurs in degrees.The variability inherent in the diagnosis of dyslexia can be both quantified and predicted with use of the normal-distribution model.
