Is there a reliable, free, online dyslexia self diagnosis test?
No, not really. There are screening tests for the possibility of dyslexia, but a reliable diagnosis needs a doctor or learning disorder specialist. There are so many types of dyslexia, ranging from mild to severe, and no online test can pick up on this. An objective (but human) tester is necessary.
You could try this: http://www.beingdyslexic.co.uk/informati⦠but dyslexia is often misdiagnosed and I would never rely on a test which isn’t done by a professional in a face to face situation.
Yes loads, but I honestly wouldn’t trust anything you find on the internet. Nothing free is going to be accurate. The best thing for you to do is research all the signs and symptoms of someone who has dyslexia, and if you think that they apply to you seek further help. If you are still in school then you can go to a the learning support department and ask for a dyslexia test. If they don’t listen to you, get your parents to write a letter and they will ;] If your not in school then chances are you don’t have it, only 1 in 10 people do. If none of your parents or teachers picked up on the dyslexia (and trust me, it’s not easy to overlook) then you probably don’t have it. But if you still want to check then you can contact a private psychologist to examine you at some expense. Also, you can try and find your nearest Learning Support center and ask for a test (but you’ll probably have to pay).
