Specific Learning Disorder, as a diagnosis in the DSM-5-TR, is a broad diagnosis that covers many different specific learning disorders or deficiencies. This disorder typically manifests in early years of schooling and is recognized by concerns related to foundational academic skills in areas of reading, writing, and mathematics. When assessments recognize a marked difference in an individual’s ability in one of these areas, compared to their peers, they may be diagnosed with a specified variant of this disorder. It is important to note that children who are recognized as “gifted” in their education, may struggle with their abilities to perceive or process information and can still be diagnosed with Specific Learning Disorder.
