Dyslexia And Its Relationship To Reading Comprehension And Oral Comprehension Among Primary School Students

Abstract

Abstract: This study aims to identify the relationship between dyslexia, reading comprehension and oral comprehension, as both works interactively in the reading process. The sample was intentionally selected from fifth year primary school students in El Oued city, based on a diagnostic group whose size was estimated at 100 students. Besides, the Raven intelligence test, word reading test, reading comprehension test and oral comprehension test were applied to all sample individuals to detect potential differences in the results of these tests between the groups of typical readers and dyslexic readers. To achieve this, the descriptive method was used in its correlational and comparative approaches. The data was statistically processed employing the "t" test for significance of differences and calculating the Pearson correlation coefficient between the scores of the tests applied to the sample, depending on the SPSS statistical program.
