Subtypes of Dyslexia and the Current Status of Morphemic Awareness Interventions

This paper summarizes and analyses the subtypes of dyslexia, and finds that the major frameworks for dyslexia research, both in alphabetic writing system and Chinese, include three areas of delineation based on reading model theory, basic perceptual deficits, and cognitive-linguistic deficits. Then describes how morphemic awareness is measured, and the current state of research on morphemic awareness interventions for dyslexia was reviewed, and it was found that morphemic awareness instructional interventions are better, and the content of the interventions varies across researchers and subjects. Future interventions for children with dyslexia may consider the use of targeted instructional interventions for morphemic awareness.
