Dysphysics. An additional specific learning disability that occurs in individuals with dyslexia or/and dyscalculia

The present study investigated the involvement of working memory deficits in the difficulty presented by individuals with dyslexia or/and dyscalculia to understand Physics. For this reason, it dealt with the working memory deficits in these individuals and with the type of difficulties they face in learning Physics. The study concluded that the deficits in Phonological loop, in visual-spatial sketchpad and central executive that cause difficulties in individuals with dyslexia or/and dyscalculia also cause a learning disability in physics, the dysphysics.
