Abstract

Dyslexia is an intricate neurobiological disorder that impacts skills in reading, spelling and writing. The understanding and recognition of dyslexia are rooted in various perspectives and theories. Most times, focus is made on the exact nature of challenges experienced by the dyslexics instead of the weakening presumptions that led to the challenging experience. This study explores the factors influencing the academic performance of students with dyslexia in Ibadan North Local Government, Nigeria. The analysis uncovered a significant and unexpected negative relationship between household income and academic performance, suggesting that higher-income levels are associated with lower academic outcomes for students with dyslexia.
