In this conversation, Dr. Laura Cassidy discusses the Shaywitz Dyslexia Screener with Drs. Bennett and Sally Shaywitz to answer the question, what does it man to be at risk for dyslexia. Dr. Bennett Shaywitz emphasizes the importance of early screening for dyslexia, particularly at the end of kindergarten, to identify at-risk students and provide timely interventions. The screener is designed to be efficient, low-cost, and based on teacher observations, ensuring that it is accessible to all children and accurately identifies children who may need additional support. The discussion also covers the validity of the screener, its development based on longitudinal studies, and the options available for intervention once a child is identified as at risk.
