Clinical and educational research has shown the emotional and motivational factors involved in learning difficulties. The main objective of this research is to propose a way to assess the effects of a rehabilitating treatment for self-esteem and behavior through improving literacy in a group of patients diagnosed with dyslexia and dysorthography. Sixty students diagnosed with dyslexia will be given a test battery to assess the emotional and behavioral profile. Afterwards, they will be divided into a control group and experimental group, which will undergo a rehabilitating treatment to enhance reading and writing. In short, the results try to prove the hypothesis of research through an appropriate literacy treatment using appropriate instruments and programs. Patients with dyslexia can achieve greater self-esteem and not only a developed communication-writing competency.
