It's more like a continuum. At one end are people who may transpose letters and numbers and very little more. As a rule they don't have a problem reading or with standardized tests. At the other end are people who have severe difficulties with both. I can't seem to find out whether there was any distinction made in the study for severity which makes me question any conclusions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33004692.post-26308572450267546622007-12-12T15:57:00.000+01:002007-12-12T15:57:00.000+01:00Interesting article.

While, I have managed to develop coping strategies to maximize my success, it has not been easy. I have often found myself in positions and tasks where I had to struggle to perform, and underutilized in areas where I naturally excel. Truthfully I have often questioned whether HR was a wise career path; it certainly hasn’t been an easy one. Unfortunately you reach a point when children, mortgages and car payments preclude a late career change. Ironically, even though I work in a profession that claims to maximize human capital, to be successful, I have had to push my round little self into a square little whole. I have done a good job of hammering myself in, but it was painful and of course, I got stuck.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
