“…Difficulties in reading also tend to highly co-occur with difficulties in other areas, such as language (e.g., developmental language disorder), attentional behaviors (e.g., attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder), and math (e.g., math learning disability; Paracchini, 2022). The high co-occurrence between these difficulties implies that developmental learning difficulties are not independent from one another.…”

“…Initially, the findings from twin studies of moderate genetic effects on reading skills led researchers to try to find a specific "dyslexia gene." We have since learned that there is no such single gene, or even a handful of genes, that underlie reading skills (Paracchini, 2022). Instead, it is clear now that outside of a few specific case examples of families with unique genes associated with reading difficulties, for most students, hundreds to thousands of their genes contribute, each in a small way, to their reading skills.…”
