Your scores say you have at least average ability but have weak working memory and slow processing speed. It takes you time to process information and will have difficulty remembering it but will have a good understanding of what you read

Normally you have a verbal and non verbal scores

Non Verbal reasoning is a sort of general intelligence test, which involves the ability to reason with novel material, without the need to draw on learned knowledge.

Verbal reasoning is the name given to one of the types of tests used to assess a person's ability to manipulate words to create new words or find hidden words and is influenced by what the person has learned.
A dyslexic profile is known to be spiky .. that just means you score high on some test and low on others and your is a classic dyslexic profile.

Orleander,
I've tried the PI with over 28 of my dyslexic pupils. It did not work for any of them. According to Teacherman 90% of the poor readers he tested were helped by his method. He also claimed that PI 'cures' dyslexia. I got 100% failure rate using his promoted method. He has failed to provide validated data evidence to back his claims so I would view Teacherman's claims as exaggerated and misleading.
His descriptions of what goes on in videos is also misleading.

"When this bright young lady asks "How does a d go?" I simply tell her to close her eyes and write it the way she "sees" it.
She forms the d (and all the rest of her letters) perfectly upside-down."

The girl did not form the 'd' perfectly at all. Her letter formation was not correct. She drew a line upwards and curled around to form the 'ball. It would have been incorrect for the d, p and b. That isn't the correct letter formation and if she continues to form her letters that way will have difficulty developing cursive script (joined up handwriting). I see too many children struggle with writing simply because they haven't learn to form their letters correctly.

He also makes concerning comments about how a child is supported . Why would a child be no longer required to take spelling or any other tests just because the child has dyslexia and dyspraxia? How is any progress measured? As a parent I would be extremely concerned with this lack of monitoring and as a teacher I am even more concerned.

The more he posts, the more concerned I become regarding his constant promoting of this subject in this forum given the frequent inaccuracies and misleading information being given.

I spent about three hours trying to sum up this study to make it easier to understand. Unfortunately, it's not an easy read,
but I'll include a link in case anyone wants to get their own copy.


Investigators:
Steen Lars?n – Royal Danish School of Educational Studies
Paul Parlenvi- Clinic of Dyslexia, Gothenburg

Purpose: To investigate the influence of different scanning directions on the reading process by using normal and inverted text.

Testing Subjects – 66 second grade children
Experimental Group- 27 boys &19 girls whose reading levels were at least one standard deviation below the general Swedish standard
Control Group – 12 boys & 8 girls at or above the standard mean

Experiment 1: Two matched lists of 153 words presented – one version upright and the other inverted.
Method- Read orally, timed and recorded. Number of correct words per minute, number of errors and types of errors recorded.
After reading, subjects were asked to recall as many words as possible.

Experiment 2: Two matched meaningful 10-word sentences presented – one read upright and the other inverted
Method – Read orally. WCPM, errors and error types as well as eye movements recorded by EDL/biometrics 200 Research Eye Movement Monitor

Results for Experiment 1

Accuracy of the control group was almost the same whether they read upright or inverted, but the poor readers were significantly more accurate upside-down.

Only 8% of the errors made by the good readers were reversals when they read the normal way, but 95% of their errors were reversals when they read inverted. Compare that with 6% reversal errors upright and just 1.3% when inverted for the poor readers.

Poor readers in experiment 1 were a little slower, but much more precise when reading upside down.

Results for Experiment 2

58.7% of the poor readers read faster from right-to-left (upside-down) compared to 34.8% who read faster left-to-right, while in 6.5% there was no difference.

This is different from the pattern of the good readers, all of whom read better from left-to-right.

If a criterion of 15% faster reading in one direction or the other is set, 28.3% of the poor readers read faster from right-to-left .and 21.7% faster from left-to-right. In comparison, 85% of the good readers read at least 15% faster from left-to-right, and none (of the good readers) read faster in the reverse direction.

The poor reader’s accuracy rate was much improved when they read upside-down. In addition, they made significantly fewer reversal errors and showed a higher semantic memory when reading inverted than when reading upright.


CONCLUSION

28% of the poor readers proved to be clearly better readers when reading right-to-left (upside-down).
30.7% read about the same both upright and upside-down

Watching these videos doesn't give any explanation as to why you believe this method works. Answering Nicks questions would be very helpful rather than point to more videos that don't give explanations.


Okay, you asked for it so here goes:
I believe that up to 20% of the world's population actually perceives the world "upside-down and backwards".

Wouldn't that explain why most dyslexics have persistent problems with left and right and reading maps? Some, like Marietta Everett, Frank Balek and Gemma Williams, discover on their own that Print Inversion is their key to reading and writing. But I think they are the exception. I believe that all the other kids who look at the world this way have no real problem getting along until they encounter print. Then they hit the wall.

Now, before you laugh, I'd like you to read this e-mail I received from Dr. Dale Jordan concerning this very "out of the box" idea.
He gave me permission to share it.


Steve,
I haven't worked with "all mankind," but I have done a great deal of one-on-one work with individuals from around the world, from many language and cultural backgrounds, childhood through adulthood. My conclusion was that 12% to 15% of all mankind likely have inverted/reversed visual perception. This ratio, based on my personal experience, has brought hoots and hollers from all over the establishment, as you know.

However, if you add what we used to call Irlen Syndrome distortions, that Laura now calls VSS, I agree that up to 25% of all mankind has visual perceptions dysfunctions that block normal development of literacy proficiency. But be ready to have your butt kicked mighty hard if you put this forth. But then, your butt has already been kicked hard, so you don't shy away from further professional abuse.
