Résumé
Dyslexia is a common childhood learning complaint defined by the International Dyslexia Association as a disorder characterized by difficulties with accurate and/or fluent word recognition and by poor spelling. This condition has been thoroughly investigated for more than a century through the lens of the most widely-known fields. A consistent finding is that dyslexia is associated with phonological deficits which have been explained from many different perspectives. One of the exceptions is the field of suprasegmental phonology (prosody), whose studies have only recently received some attention. Given the wide scope of the prosodic process and its connection to the areas related to processing of reading, it becomes highly important to study these two areas in combination: reading and prosody. The aim of this study is to test the effectiveness of Muldidimensional Fluency Scale in detecting reading problems and assess the impact of prosodic abilities for identifying dyslexic readers.
