Familial Characteristics of Genetic Dyslexia

Abstract

The statistical data set forth in this report may be an invaluable contribution to the field of learning disabilities-especially to geneticists. The population sample and data collection procedures used for this study seem to have been well controlled. The concept of a homogeneous, three generation search for significant familial characteristics and disorders is an approach to the hereditary aspects of some forms of learning disabilities which would bear watching.—C.
