Specific learning disability involving writing.
A serious difficulty with handwriting.
impaired ability to learn to write
a learning disability resulting from the difficulty in expressing thoughts in writing and graphing
Difficulty in the physical process of writing, including letter formation and the matching of letter symbols to speech sounds. A dysgraphic individual may also have problems "holding the thought" long enough to write it on paper due to the demands of the writing process. Often, dysgraphic handwriting is not very legible, or it is not produced at an age-appropriate speed.
a form of Specific Learning Disability that involves a delay or inability in learning to recognize and interpret visual symbols. Dysgraphia may be a significant mechanism involved in some instances of Dyslexia.
Extremely poor handwriting or the inability to perform the motor movements required for handwriting. The condition is often associated with neurological dysfunction.
Inability to express ideas in writing.
A severe difficulty in producing handwriting that is legible and written at an age-appropriate speed.
inefficiency or confusion in the ability to produce legible handwriting because of motor skills, visual perception skills and/or the coordination of the visual and motor skills necessary for writing (see kinesthetic, fine motor, agraphia, and eye-hand coordination).
a neurological disorder characterized by writing disabilities. Specifically, the disorder causes a person's writing to be distorted or incorrect. In children, the disorder generally emerges when they are first introduced to writing. They make inappropriately sized and spaced letters, or write wrong or misspelled words, despite thorough instruction. Children with the disorder may have other learning disabilities, however, they usually have no social or other academic problems.
A learning disability that impairs a person's ability to write.
A learning disability that makes it difficult to perform physical tasks of forming letters and words using a pen and paper and producing legible handwriting.
Difficulty writing, usually caused by brain dysfunction or disease.
Difficulty writing. This can be the actual physical (motor) process required for writing or the difficulty of being able to express ideas in writing, or of the symbols required for writing (mathematical as well as letter symbols).
People with this disorder have difficulty with handwriting. Their writing is usually not legible and not written at an age-appropriate speed. Problems might be seen in the motor patterns used during writing, as well as difficulties with spelling and written composition.
Difficulty in producing legible handwriting.
A neurologically-based learning disability characterized by distorted or incorrect formation of written words and symbols. ( learn more)
Dysgraphia (or agraphia) is a deficiency in the ability to write, regardless of ability to read. People with dysgraphia often can write on some level, and may have a higher than average IQ, but lack co-ordination, and may find other fine motor tasks such as tying shoes difficult (It often does not affect all fine motor skills). They can also lack basic spelling skills (having difficulties with p,q,b,d), and often will write the wrong word when trying to formulate thoughts (on paper).
