Frequently Asked Questions

What does this quiz measure?
It screens for patterns in reading, spelling, and written-language experiences that can be associated with dyslexia. It is intended for self-reflection, not diagnosis.

It takes about 10 minutes to complete. It includes 15 questions.
Can the results diagnose or rule out dyslexia?
No. The score bands are not clinical cutoffs and cannot confirm or exclude dyslexia.
How should answers be selected for a child or someone else?
Answer as if “you” refers to the person being considered. Compare skills with age, typical instruction, and learning opportunities.
What should be done if the results suggest ongoing difficulties?
If difficulties persist or affect school, work, or confidence, consider speaking with a teacher, SENCO, a qualified dyslexia assessor, an educational psychologist, or a healthcare professional. A formal evaluation may be appropriate.
