Overview of Research on Dyslexia Assessment and Identification in China

Abstract

Dyslexia can affect students’ academic performance, self-esteem, mental health, social and emotional development, career and life prospects. Currently, there is a lack of scientifically unified methods and tools for dyslexia assessment and identification in China, resulting in a lower incidence rate of Chinese dyslexic students being discovered. Scientifically and accurately assessing and identifying dyslexic students and providing them with corresponding support and intervention measures are key issues in dyslexia research. This paper aims to analyze the progress of research on dyslexia assessment and identification in China, evaluate its current status, and summarize inspirations for dyslexia assessment and identification for future reference.
