Thank you for your interpretation, aeh. I really appreciate it.
Have reading disabilities ever been discussed with you?
Reading disabilities have never been discussed with me. The psychologist wrote in the report that my history is not consistent with a Specific Learning Disorder. She attributed the lower reading scores to ADHD. My math/writing scores have always been lower than my reading scores on school standardized tests, so I had assumed reading was an area of strength.
I don�t believe I have any measures of fluency, rapid naming, retrieval efficiency. The only other measures from the report are these subtests from the WJ III NU and the Brown ADD Scales:
Woodcock-Johnson III Normative Update
Working Memory: 117
Broad Attention: 113
Numbers Reversed: 111
Auditory Working Memory: 121
Auditory Attention: 98
Pair Cancellation: 99
Brown ADD Scales (T-Scores)
Activation: 68
Attention: 53
Effort: 53
Affect: 86
Memory: <50
Total: 63
From what I understand, Activation (task initiation and timeliness) and Affect (e.g. frustration tolerance, irritability, impatience, sensitivity to criticism) are the only scales with clinically significant T-scores.
