I am Speech Therapist and have a PhD in Linguistics. In my thesis titled “Procesamiento morfológico flexivo en niñas y niños hispanohablantes con dislexia” I examined the inflectional morphology processing in children with and without dyslexia, observing that both groups (of study and control) seem to process the inflectional forms in the same way and that the presence of morphemes in reading helps the transition from reading by grapheme-phoneme decoding to global reading. My main interest is to investigate the reading processes with subjects with and without dyslexia.
