Desarrollo del lenguaje y aprendizaje de la lectura en un caso con dislexia.

Abstract

The case study presented is about dyslexia, assuming that this is a language disorder, which manifests inabilities in the phonological, sensory-descriptive and linguistic areas that affect language development. In the third grade of the educational institution "Dr. Abdón Calderón Muñoz" of Santa Rosa, the case of a 7 year old student with dyslexia has been evidenced. The general objective of the research is to analyze the relationship between the development of language and the learning of reading in a girl with dyslexia. In addition, the qualitative approach was assumed and the type of descriptive research; which seeks to learn more information about a problem. From the epistemological point of view, it describes the psycholinguistic approach, which focuses on reading and identifies how children carry out the reading process. Therefore, through the dual-route model, it seeks to explain the reading comprehension process. The instruments used for data collection were the ITPA, PROLEC and DST-J tests. As a result, it was found that the child presents difficulties in phonetics, syntax and semantics. In addition, it was corroborated that she makes use of the lexical pathway because she associates and identifies words already memorized; therefore, it is difficult for her to use the sublexical pathway, which is in charge of performing the grapheme-phoneme conversion through the orthographic processor, so she is unable to convert unknown words into sounds when reading.
