q3 · i? · associational · r2

Clinical cohort study at the UCSF Dyslexia Center in which "among the 75 participants referred with a diagnosis of dyslexia, 50 had trouble in mathematics (i.e., two-thirds of dyslexia sample)", as classified by a clinician team and confirmed on the MCB.

"In summary, among the 75 participants referred with a diagnosis of dyslexia, 50 had trouble in mathematics (i.e., two-thirds of dyslexia sample)."
