Hello Kathy: It appears from the neurosience reseach that that Dyslexia,
dyscalculia, aspergers are more likely to refer to syndromes with
interconnected areas. Edu Psychologist rely on a very limited tool though to
establish a complete separation. My view is that they are more likely to
find something that is not possible to completely define. Andy
