HealthDay (7/11, Dallas) reports a study published online recently in the Journal of Interpersonal Violence found that “adults with dyslexia are more likely to report that they were physically abused as children or teenagers than people who don’t have the learning disorder.” The researches said it isn’t clear if dyslexia makes children more likely to be abused or if physical abuse contributes to dyslexia.
