| Summary: | This study is to identify dyslexia symptom among forty preschoolers from selected
kindergartens in Negeri Sembilan. The instrument of the study was adapted
from ‘The Dyslexia Early Screening Test (DEST) renamed ‘Ujian Awal
Pengesahan Disleksia’. The instrument included ten subtests including rhyme
detection, memory recall, fine motor skills, sense perception, and posture
stability. The sample of the study is chosen through random sampling from two
schools in Negeri Sembilan. The data was analyzed descriptively using
percentages. The findings of the study indicated that 27.5% of the preschoolers
had dyslexic symptoms; 15 % were identified as having high risk of dyslexic
symptoms. More boys had dyslexic symptoms (10%) compared to girls (5%).The three subtests that showed low scores were letter naming, rhyme detection,
and phonological discrimination. Results indicated urgent need to train parents
to interact with dyslexic children at home. It also suggested that teacher
training addresses strategies to overcome difficulties facing dyslexic children. |
