Dyslexia and Visuospatial Processing Strengths: New Research Sheds Light

Do people with dyslexia have superior "visuospatial processing" abilities compared to those without dyslexia? It is an intriguing question. Anecdotal reports and clinical observations dating back to the earliest days of dyslexia's discovery support the popular belief that dyslexia has upsides, particularly in visuospatial domains. Now, science is providing tantalizing new hints that might move us closer to answering this question with support from a body of empirical work. http://www.interdys.org/DyslexiaAndVisuospatialProcessing.htm
