This website also has information for parents on testing your child for dyslexia, the causes of dyslexia, strategies for improving reading comprehension, and working with your child's school.

The reading assessment software was created by software developer Jeremy Wise, Ph.D. and University of Massachusetts professor James M. Royer, Ph.D. Professor Royer is director of the University's Laboratory for the Assessment and Training of Academic Skills, and is an internationally recognized expert on the assessment of dyslexia and skill development to improve reading comprehension in dyslexic readers.
