Study of Neurological, Cognitive and Behavioral Profiles in Dyslexic Children and their ParentalStress Assessment
Background: Dyslexia is the most common learning disorder. Usually it is associated with cognitive processing dysfunction, Association of dyslexia and developmental co-ordination disorder is frequent, and has been studied for quite long of time, about 50% of dyslexic children has to have Motor co-ordination problems disorder and behavioral disorders. Dyslexia negatively influences the child-mother relationship causing maternal stress and parenting dysfunction that threatens the family compliance and cohesion.

All the children were subjected to quick neurological screening, cognitive processing and behavioral problems assessment. All the mothers were subjected to parental stress assessment. Results: The showed that 83.3% of the children have motor coordination problems, 50% have cognitive processing dysfunction, particularly weakness in planning and visual-spatial related skills, 80% of the children have at least one co-morbid behavioral disorder, the commonest being depression and anxiety, with girls having higher levels of depression than the boys, moreover, there was statistically significant incompetency regarding social and sports related activities. Regarding the mothers, 90% had extremely high level of parental stress which is more related to their children behavioral problems and characteristics and also mother characteristics .
